Actually I was meaning that this is all getting a bit much- 9 pages of debate and it doesn't seem to be going anywhere- those who like the idea still like it, and those who don't, don't Laughing And it's not the only long-winded debate of the subject that hasn't resulted in anything- hence the reference to the TVNICA color debate
and how do you think in Archaology and science in general we (humanity) came this far? Indeed, with debate!!
Antonivs, i find your layered linen theory a lot more plausible than leather...
Though i still keep my main point with metal armour, it might be sensible not to exclude it completely (like leather) or at least parts of the armour...
however i do think the chest and backplate were made out of metal, but i am not convinced the shoulder hinges/doublings were........
