From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The belt hook is a device for fastening that predates the belt buckle.[1][2]
The earliest archaeological evidence of belt hooks date to the 7th century BC, in East Asia.[1] Belt hooks were made with bronze, iron, gold, and jade.[1] Texts from Warring States period China claim that the belt hook originates from Central Asian nomads, although belt hooks have been found in China predating the Warring States.[2] Belt hooks have also been found in Celtic archaeological sites.[3]
