Armor Penetration and Armor resistance.
#27
Have there been any Greek needles that would be capable of sewing through 30 layers of linen? It would take a very strong steel needle to sew through this many layers of linen. Every ancient needle I have seen were either bronze, or bone. Not saying that these wouldnt sew it, but it would be very difficult.
