\"Tube and yoke\" hamata?

We have no idea whether the shoulder doublings were intended to provide extra protection to the shoulders or whether it was just an attempt to emulate the Greek fashion. This style seems to have been adopted for leather, mail, scale, and even some types of plate armour at the time.
