Polish term or phrase: skuwka
Skuwki ze stopu miedzi.
To pojedyncze zdanie, podpis do zdjęcia (niestety nie mam do niego dostępu), chodzi o rzeczy znalezione przez archeologów w grobach, wśród nich są zapinki, przęśliki, sprzączki, okucia skrzyń, narzędzia typu nożyce, noże, itp.

Wyjaśnienie od autora: chodzi o skuwki, które były elementem pasa ale nie mają związku ze sprzączkami. To po prostu prostokątna, zwinięta blaszka z jednym nitem, którą nasadzano na pas i przymocowywano wspomnianym nitem.

Strap ends are anything designed to finish a flat strip of fabric or leather. They are made of copper alloy, one or both sides may be decorated. Generally there are 2 ends, terminal and attachment, and both need describing in detail. Also if there is a spacer, or any remains of attachments these need describing.

end tip


Explanation:
Many belts also have a keeper loop and/or an end tip (the end tip is usually metal, or leather on cloth belts). The end tip protects the end of the belt from being damaged/frayed and can make it easier to buckle. After the belt is buckled, the keeper loop stops the free end from flapping around. - https://www.artofmanliness.com/articles/complete-guide-mens-...
