Why was this made, and how was it used?
This Miter was used for important religious events in Salzburg and the greater country of Austria. Considering the fact that this Miter was made in the 13th century, a time period where the Crusades were a constant battle, this miter could be inferred to be worn during religious events that purpetrated christianity and could hvae demonized or suppress contradicting religions such as Islam.
