Quote:We had used cingulum for years.. based on a known reference source, and after having learned that the term was not accurate for our time period have switched to balteus militare


danglium: the straps that hang or dangle from the balteus militare
dinglium the bits that hang at the end of the danglium
jinglium: dinglium that jingle

So... is Danglium one of the straps, and Danglia the plural ... or does the singular form of the word simply include all the straps on a single belt? :lol:
