THE ULTIMATE ARCHAIC HOPLITE RECONSTRUCTION

[Dan Howard]

Is the whole panoply made of copper? it looks it from the magazine article.

The text says "copper alloy", not copper.

Nice job Stefanos. Much better than other recent attempts. Good to see a reconstruction made by someone who knows something about both the source material and how real armour is supposed to function.

But get out the polish. Bronze is supposed to shine like the sun - to make the wearer look like a god.
