A History of the Idea of Glued Linen Armour

[Creon01]

Kudos Sean! It's always interesting to find out why we think something is "accurate" when discussing the military material culture of the the Ancient World, especially when we have very scant physical and in this case little literary evidence as well. What little evidence we do have is open to interpretation...and to my dismay seems to cause ill feelings among some folks who disagree. I do see in the newest cohort of Greek reenactors a sense of "we can agree to disagree" on this subject and they just move on to other topics of interests. The cause is not furthered by name calling or disallowing one type of tube and yoke armor in a group over another type if makers attempt to use reliable sources as guides. PLUS...I like seeing my name on the old RAT.
