Hi

I am not sure if anyone has posted this but a search did not reveal the name.

The TV programme 'Museum Secrets' on the National Archaeological Museum of Athens showed a reconstruction of a linothorax by Scott Bartell and Professor Greg Aldrete from the Univerity of Wisconsin and a demonstration where it was shot at with bronze tipped arrows including when it was even worn by Bartell.

They have a website www.uwgb.edu/aldreteg/linothorax.html

and I am sure interested parties here would like to contact Professor Aldrete about the results of the tests at [email protected]
