Optimates equipment?
#3
I think that could be an optimate I came across something written by procopius which said that they had spangenehelm, a thigh length lamellar cuirass with elbow length sleeves, a thureos on their shoulder, vambraces, greaves, (Not sure if they had gauntlets) they had a spatha a bow a contus and a mace. Their horse had a peytral chanfron and crinet made of lamellar. Since the lived during the sixth century they would have had stirrups
