Dan, I was just reading the dura report, and there is a direct quote about the use of a subarmalis, whether it was called such, I
won't put my neck out, but seems there is some source reference to it.
IIRC there was at least one mail sample at Dura Europos with a liner. I think it was felt. It might have been the Sasanian example rather than one of the Roman ones though.
