Quote:The chiton is simply secured by two very small stitched where the pins would be. That way it doesn't chafe.
Somewhere I have a copy of a paper on the way Greeks used buttons to secure the chiton, I wondered if this made them chafe less under armor. If you are curious, send me an email and I'll send a copy of the paper if I can find it.

A Spartan, being asked a question, answered "No." And when the questioner said, "You lie," the Spartan said, "You see, then, that it is stupid of you to ask questions to which you already know the answer!"
