Roman Body Armour by H & J Travis
#23
Not sure i like the idea of using modern maille and medieval as a way to speculate what the Romans may have used. Especially when it would appear that its irrelevant.

I have a friend who is a member of AEMMA, a western medieval martial arts group. When doing armored combat, they had to get rid of butted maille because it simply wouldnt last. They had to upgrade to rivetted.
