Reconstructing Ancient Linen Body Armor - New Book
The Alexander mosaic shows him wearing a tube and yoke armour. Is it one of his Greek cuirasses or is it the linen one he got as Persian war booty? If it is war booty then the Persians must have worn tube and yoke armour as well and we therefore have evidence of at least one linen cuirass made in the tube and yoke style.
