Hi again Colin. Have been thinking that the whole belt may possibly be of Arabian origin and the horn later attached??? Not only is the buckle typically Omani, but the thong fastening of the pouch also appears there. I have a cartridge belt (pic attached) showing the buckle and thong fastener of the pouch. The decoration of your belt would not be out of place either.
