Linothorax construction with alternative fabric
#16
Gluing mummy and making armors are two different things... if anything, glued linen strips on the mummy are not needed to resist human sweat, or atmospheric conditions on everyday basis. Gluing linen together also makes such material easily damaged by mechanical stress, which would be present if such material was used for armor. Amount of glue needed to stitch multiple layers of linen together would make final material much heavier than it would be if sawing was used..

there are just way too many NAY's for a glued linen armor theory...
