Excellent find! And, of course, most excellent work, Messrs. Bishop and Thomas, and thanks to Armatura Press.

As for the uptake part, I'm certainly no one to point any fingers in that direction: just ask anybody. I'm barely comfortable with the 20th century technology, and now there's 16GB memory chips smaller than a fingernail.

It's the complete Loricia Segmentata Books 1 & 2. Hundreds of pictures of different hinges, lacing loops, drawings and photos of actual finds and reproductions of Seg, in all the various known iterations. When you get back out of the cold sea station, it will be worth looking up!

The books are also available for purchase, at a fairly reasonable price, too. I'm squeezing my two coins together, hoping they'll mate and produce a litter of offspring.

'Yes' would seem the most obvious answer :lol:
