True lamellar construction involves lacing (part of it visible from the outside) and is flexible. Up till now, the so-called Roman lamellae (i.e. elongated copper-alloy scales), when found still attached in groups (some fine examples from Dura on S. James' book) have been only reported as linked by wire loops, belonging thus just to rigid scale construction, not to lamellar one.<br>

It\'s all an accident, an accident of hands. Mine, others, all without mind, from one extreme to another, but neither works nor will ever.
