Eastern Roman/Byzantine Lamellar
#1
Hey everyone,
I just have two questions: 1) what were the typical dimensions (approximately) of the individual lames, and 2) does anyone know how many of said lames it required to make a sleeveless klibanion?

A friend and I are planning on making one or two, so any feedback is appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.
