This war belt not only served to support the warrior's \u003ci\u003ebraccae\u003c\/i\u003e (trousers) during battle, but was also a sign of military rank or honor.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eThe cincture often included a leather apron, consisting of several narrow, flat strips (so-called \u003ci\u003epteryges\u003c\/i\u003e or \u003ci\u003epteruges\u003c\/i\u003e ), which hung from the belt and were decorated with continuous rows of riveted metal fittings.

The riveted, rectangular decorative plates (approx. 8.5 x 5 cm), made of thin brass sheets, are alternately engraved with a human face motif and the famous \u003ci\u003eRoman she-wolf or lupa\u003c\/i\u003e motif suckling Romulus and Remus. In Roman mythology, the twins are considered the founders of Rome. The hinged buckle and movable pugio brackets are also made of brass.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eThe hipbelt is made of durable 3mm thick leather. The strap is pre-cut and adjustable to a variety of sizes. A leather cord is included for tying and attaching a dagger to the button-shaped pugio suspensions. The striped apron consists of four leather strips, each decorated with a pendant and eight brass medallions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As an ideal accessory for Roman reenactment, LARP, stage, or TV\/film, this beautiful Roman belt will make your transformation into a proud warrior simply perfect.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDetails:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Material: brown leather, decorative brass hardware.\u003cbr\u003e - Thickness (without fittings): approx. 3 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Total length (including buckle): approx. 135 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Suitable for a hip circumference of approx. 100 to 125 cm.\u003cbr\u003e - Width: approx. 8 cm (approx. 2.5 mm at the perforated end)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Apron strap: approx. 32cm long (including pendant), 3.2cm wide\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Weight: approx. 840 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eThe above specifications may vary slightly from copy to copy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e At \u003cstrong\u003eTienda Medieval,\u003c\/strong\u003e we have thousands of medieval and other period products.
