Recreating a Greek Cavalryman

[Giannis K. Hoplite]

The thing is,Xenophon had travelled a lot,and had seen many different kind of troops,that few other greeks would have seen in his age. He had also written novels about foreign kings and solders,so we shouldn't search for similar armour only in the greek region,but in every region that Xenophon had travelled,and of any different kind of soldier that he could have actually seen,even if he hadn't been in their original country. Given he had come in contact with a gathering of many different kind of soldiers from all over Persia and not only,it's rather difficult to know where we should look at,for every different piece of equipment he mentions. And of course he could have invented some. The bronze quirass modification sounds like one of them,but perhaps inpired by a foreign type of cuirass and for a foreign kind of fighting.
