🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Copper/Brass Ribbon with Attaching Buckle

[thekise]

Both Ribbon and Attaching Buckle are Copper/Brass and non-ferrous.
The Ribbon is 1/2" Wide and .012" thick.
Attaching Buckle is 7/8" wide x 1" long and .027" thick

Was found about 6" down in compacted ground where cars parked for years at a local church.
The property had a one-room school on it before the first church was built there in the early 1800's.

Any idea what it is or could have been used for??

Any ideas appreciated!!

Looks like brass scrap that was bunched up for recycle.

Wooden box strapping. Buckle, for opening the thing.
Box that the contents would be wanted now and then....
