Leather Cuirass Lorica Musculata, I used to think no way but
well I for one do not believe in the leather story all together.

the shoulder pieces? maybe metal,maybe even pressed and glued linen...

the torso itself?

definetely iron or bronze.

btw enoug musculata remains have been found, just not published and not being shown on the internet.

i go by the idea that it was further developed (in metal!) from earlier graeco/etrusco corinthian musculata, from which era we also have METAL evidence.
