Hi
I'm new to the forum and am doing a bit of research on the armour that would have been worn by Greeks and Trojans during the Trojan War period. I've heard that boar's tusk helmets and the Dendera-style armour suits would already have been outdated by 1200BC, but does anyone have any images of the likely helmets, breastplates, shields, greaves etc that would have been worn? :?
I'd be really grateful for any help I could get. I've read through a few other topics and it looks like there's a real wealth of knowledge amongst the members here.
Thanks,
Glyn
