These folding supports for tables, bracers and cauldrons are known finds from important excavations in the Roman world, like Pompeii. The purpose of such folding stands varied; during a meal they were placed between the triclinary beds with bowls and application plates hung to the hooks at the back of the holders, here shaped as heads of a Mater Castrorum, pointing to a campaign use. A tripod with an intact bronze basin is on display at the Firenze Archaeological Museum. Some were used as supports for campaign tables during military activities, with a circular board inserted onto the pegs to lock the legs into place. Depending on their size, the width of the table frame could be changed. Roman folding tripods could also have been used in religious rituals and sacrifices. Burnt offerings and libations were offered to the gods in cauldrons that would have been attached to the hooks behind the heads on the upper section. They were also used for fire lights during military camps, or in the temples of the gods. Others were used as support frames for bronze bowls, either for washing or for ritual purposes; others formed the base for travelling altars, again often used by the military whilst on campaign. Their use continued in the Roman world at least until the 7th century AD. Fine condition, some restoration. Excessively rare.
