Quote:We have extant Persian scales dating to the right time period made of iron. Some are even plated in gold just like Herodotus' description of Masistius' armour.
We also have the Prodromi and Vergina tomb cuirasses, which are Iron and date to the 4th century BC. The Prodromi is a muscle cuirass.
