Found this at a site where a military school was back in 1893. Not sure what type of metal it is.

I've not seen one exactly like yours, but I am betting it is a keeper for a belt plate.

I agree. It looks like a (sling/belt/webbing/strapping) slide buckle piece. Maybe half of a two piece, the small square being the female end.
