Wearing of Golden Rings

The wearing of golden rings by Arabian princesses, Roman knights, and Roman sentors

Arabian princesses wear golden rings on their fingers, to which little bells are suspended, so that their superior rank may be known, and they, themselves, receive, in passing, the homage due to them.

The insignia of honor peculiar to the Roman knights were a charger, furnished at the public expense, a golden ring and a certain place in the theatre. The senators also wore golden rings.
