Squamata opening Help
#1
Does anyone have pictures of either reconstructions or sculptural evidence that shows where or how the squamata was opened.

I am making my own and I would like to have options as to where the split should occur. Many believe the left side because
it was protected by the shield and allowd the legionary to put it on and lace/buckle it up himself.

Others believe in a rear lacing because it gives a nice contour but it would require another person and we know that soldiers helped
each other anyway.

So I am open to suggestions but would like to see photos so I can get an idea. I have seen many sculptures with squamata but
none to my knowledge show an opening. So any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
