The cingulum or Roman belt was a piece used in Ancient Rome to hold the garments. The cingulum militare was the belt of the Roman army, a way to differentiate from the people of Rome when the soldiers did not wear the uniform or armor, later the belt probably gained its importance due to its function as a gladius belt.

It is a Roman complement of craftsmanship that can be worn with a basic tunic as a soldier in rest season as with the set of the lorica to go ready for battle.
