I too was believing it to be scale but after this fresco and enother one also Etruscan, I think it is linen. If it is linen,I suppose it can't be quilted? And there is a find of Scythian armor with similar construction but it's leather. It looks too thin to be plates over other matterial, but I'm not sure.
Connolly has not updated the "scale" theory in his latest edition.
