Abstract
The purpose of the article is to present the results of a preliminary religious and historical-cultural study of the band with Masonic symbols from the collection of famous Orel collector P. Based on the analysis of the Masonic symbols placed on the band, the author defines this artifact as part of the ritual vestment of a Mason of the 33-rd degree of dedication of the Scottish Charter of the Southern Jurisdiction of the United States and establishes its approximate dating. After a brief review of the history of this Masonic organization a hypothesis is put forward that this item belongs to specific individuals from among the leaders of the Scottish Charter of the United States. At the same time the author draws attention to cultural-historical and collectible value of this artifact and points out the desirability of conducting a comprehensive scientific examination.
