This tells us nothing about what may have lain under the mail shirt itself and certainly cannot be used as evidence of an integrated liner.Of course not. You need to look at a lot more examples than just the Vacheres statue. There aren't just depictions of mail edging, there are also depictions of what appears to be armour being worn over regular clothing.
