How imptant was the anglius of the Danglius? Was the small too used to readjust this angle called the tweakius? and also, was the audio of the jinglius used to differientiate between individual chorts in battle? You might also be interested to know of a second century innovation. To help resolve the problem of the belt being pulled up when withdrawing the Gladius, sometimes one of the dangilium was run between the legs and attached to the back of the belt. This modification, which proved popular amongst those who chose to wear the very short greek tunic, became known as the geestringeous.
This developed sometime later with the introduction of the very narrow danglius, into the wedgius thongius.
