Illustrations of Sassanid Persian Clibanarii

Quote:The scale gorget is just actually a form of shoulder doubling, like on the hamata, but they are in a circular variety, with a hole for the head in the center, to be worn on top of scale or mail. I thought they attributed some of the scale fragments found at Dura to a type of scale gorget, but the scales might have been from a different site.
But what is the authority for it?
Michael King Macdona

And do as adversaries do in law, -
Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.
