Quote:First,Herodotus is talking aonly of female chitons....as I have pointed out on another thread, there was little/no transvestism in those times because male/female clothing was essentially the same and 'unisex'- simple shapes such as rectangles, of cloth - differing only in drape/fashion, and length of hemline.....men's generally short, but some full-length chitons are portrayed on men.......so essentially no difference.
