As far as the cataloguer knows this is the only source for the indigenous name of the Curg ayudha katti belt. This type of sword was carried by the peoples of Curg (Coorg or Kodagu) on the Malabar Coast. Unlike almost all other swords it has no scabbard but was carried on the back by a belt through which it passed through a flattened brass ring. reference term-106853 adlib-term-106853 25492eb4-1164-35eb-8dce-3601486f3415 19th Century reference term-126223 adlib-term-126223 152dd0e7-92aa-3117-b8f0-f667f1b8b81e literal India India country South India Length cm 88 Overall Length cm 170 reference term-111094 adlib-term-111094 5bbe8298-ee1b-3018-a8a3-f48cb73e0dc1 belt object name reference term-126218 adlib-term-126218 5c8f101c-7368-3b5a-a61d-702fe0e8b92d Indian weapons category todunga reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum reference publication-6089 adlib-publication-6089 762534e6-b9a6-3c98-ad56-fac315162b46 List of arms presented to the Fitzwilliam Museum by Robert Tayler, Esq.
