Thank you very much for posting the images showing the details of the back construction. Notice that the reinforcement strip is not the only means of keeping the back together. Underneath the reinforcement strip is an edge seam. Also, from wearing my caligae I've found that the reinforcement strip also serves to protect the stitches that attache the back to the bottom. I think that the last photo shows stitches along the base of the heel.
