Here's a painting with a gorget and with Philip's cuirass covered in linen...

The gorget in Philips tomb was gold but not plated.
Pteruges I find it unlikely to be the belt mentioned.Philip's pteruges had gold on them,like the pic above,but how could they be of higher craftmanship than the rest of the armour?I'm thinking something like this:

But I don't know if it was worn over the armour.And also,Alexander is mentioned to have been wearing a Persian quilted thorax...
