Roman Belt End Clip, Tekija Design, Tinned Brass

Gift End Clip for Roman Belt, Tekija Design, Tinned Brass

Roman end bracket, tinned brass strap adjustment, tekija design



This Roman belt end is based on finds from the Flavian period (second half of the 1st century AD). The original artifacts found near Tekija/Tekije in Serbia (part of the Roman province of Pannonia in ancient Rome) belonged to the leather apron of the cingulum or balteus of a Roman legionary. These aprons consisted of several flat leather strips (called pteryges or pteruges ) hanging from the belt and were decorated with continuous rows of metal fittings. Each strip was ended with metal charms.



This authentic replica of a decorative Roman belt fitting is made of 2 mm thick, tin-plated brass. The end of the belt consists of an amphora-shaped pendant and a rectangular clip-shaped closure piece with holes for rivets. These end clips are ideal for constructing your own Roman belts with striped aprons and are also ideal as a replacement for existing legionary belts, such as our Roman balteus based on the find from Tekije (item no. 1616672700). Delivery is without fastening material.



An ideal accessory for Roman reenactment.
