Belt Buckle with an Eagle
Ostrogothic women of high-ranking status typically wore an ankle-length garment, secured at the shoulders by a matching pair of brooches and belted at the waist by an elaborate buckle such as this one. A necklace, bracelet, rings, and earrings with polyhedral beads would complete the ensemble.
This Buckle is comprised of the following parts: 17.190.100a (Buckle Plate), 17.190.100c (Buckle Tongue), 17.190.104b (Buckle Loop).
