Very Heavy Roman mail

Iron can expand up to four times its original volume as it oxidises. The high surface area of mail makes it particularly susceptible to this. Unless the mail is unusually well preserved, it is a waste of time measuring the thickness of extant mail links because it doesn't tell us anything useful.
