Hi people,
I'm new here and I want to show you my new hamata and also I would need to know your opinion about it, if it is correct or not, from begining first century A.C, more or less...
It's composed of riveted rings.

Thank you very much Smile

Is it all riveted rings, or alternating riveted with solid rings?

No that is fine, I would guess it is a good hamata. Not sure if the bottom had an edging on the infantry ones, although I have seen ones worn by centurions with them. But still, looks pretty good to me!
