We propose that a significant fraction of the wide massive binaries in the field are formed as a result of the disintegration of multiple systems of trapezium type. As examples we discuss here the binaries formed from the evolution of the mini-cluster associated with the B component of the Orion Trapezium, from that of the Orion Trapezium itself, and from 10 additional massive trapezia for which we found reliable data in the literature.
