And "skytinai" were "cloacks", "sitiva" tunik from leather. "difthrra" hooded tunik covering up to the eybrow. "veti" long tunik and Sofokles calls the same (veti) the tents of the barbarians. "sisirna" is tunic wide with its hair; Skythians use it and "sysira" as overgarment from processed hide (leather)
...in five "sisyras" wraped in.....
Aristofanes says "spollas" armor from leather attached from the shoulders as Xenophon says "spollas" instead of armor.
Sofokles this "Livyssa" names this thing;
Spollas "Livyssa" hide with spots (could be also decorated hide)
Laudes Danno
Kind regards
