Armor in the late fifth century bc.
#12
Good example Stefanos, but I thought the Thespians died to a man at Delium?

So it seems that there was not an intentional shift away from the wearing of armor, I had felt that this theory made no sense anyway, any noticable decline in the apperance of armor could be easily attributed to many factors, or there was no decline in production, just a drastic increase in demand by many who simply could not afford it, as Giannis said, it is a circular argument.
