Weight of Hoplite Panoply - MikeArledge - 08-29-2006
Can anyone help me out with links to extant pieces to use for sources on the proper weight.
I ask because the weights seem to jump from anywhere between 30-80 lbs depending on who you read, but it is hard to find people who cite extant pieces as their basis.
Sorry if this is a rehash, and not looking to debate the weights (that could go on forever) just looking to see if anyone has any sources to cite.
Mike
