In addition to the disc-shaped plaques or medals known as phalerae , military awards in ancient Rome were also presented in the form of torcs. These large, open rings were always awarded in pairs. During parades, a highly decorated Roman legionary (called a phaleratus ) would display his phalerae on a leather cuirass that he wore over his armor. Typically, the torcs hung clearly visible at collarbone level from a red scarf, the so-called focale .
