So I've assembled a belt with a buckle only. But given that many similarities with findings from Karanovo (which is richly decorated) it will not be wrong this model from Chatalka to be decorated with similar plates, for the needs of reenactment. Of course unless it is for the needs of museum exhibition with a replica of this funeral.
The hinge assembly of the buckles from Chattalka and Karanovo funerals is unique solutions for this Roman buckles models. In other models (except in here on the Thracian buckles) such technical solution cannot be seen.
Surely these two belts models (from Chatalka and from Karanovo) were distributed and well known among Thracian Auxiliary for this period. Given that the Thracian cohorts and cavalry Ala has been placed on all limes of the Roman Empire .Also inside the empire by performing gendarmerie functions on roads, castels, and other security points. So that these two models are very suitable to be used in the Thracian reenactment ,in events in all over Europe:Eastern Europe, the stream Rhine, the stream Danube to Britain including.
