I came across this on eBay....a military belt described as a Greek Apulian Military Belt:
It is dated to the 4th century bce and belonged to an officer, quite possibly from the army of Philip or Alexander.
It is made from a solid sheet of bronze with two closing hooks inscribed with acanthus leaves and has holes for an attached backing. Size 37"L x 2-1/2"H,
Beautiful....

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
