Quote:What kinds of animal skins were used on their horses? I've seen representations of lion and leopard pelts, but are tiger pelts also possible?
Secondly, what kinds of armor were used? Chamfrons? Other? And why don't Hetairoi wear greaves in reproductions? Are there literary sources for this? For me, as a cavalryman, I'd think I'd wear greaves, since my legs would be at perfect striking level.
and then you would fall at first bump of the ground cause you would slip over the horse :lol:
No stir ups remember? :wink:
