Avete,
I'm curious, about when was the Lorica Plumata (the scale backed by mail armor) used? Is there any evidence for its use in the Late Roman period, say between 4th to 6th centuries? Or, even if there is no direct evidence (for the Late period), would it be a logical assumption that it may have been used at all?
