Is this Military?

[callicles]

This chain was used for decades as a gate latch on a farm where a Civil War Battle was fought. I guess the first question is: is it military, and,if so, could it be from the Civil War?

Thanks for looking!

Looks to me to be a horse leg shackle chain.

I did not know that BosnMate had passed. That’s a big loss for all of us. I pray that he is with the Lord.
