Description: | Roman strap-end from a soldier's belt. A metal strip through the D-shaped end would attach the strap-end to the end of the belt to stop the leather curling up. Often worn in pairs, the strap-ends would jingle together to make a pleasing sound as the soldier walked (late second or third century, Arbeia Roman Fort).
