Quote:Etruscan & punic armour take the sacrad band "Iron armour "Ok what type unknown !,
For what my opinion is worth, I had to consider this when I was writing the AW article on Bagradas, I think the iron armour was lamellar like the Etruscan example above. Such armour was more popular in the near east than it was in Greece, so it made sense to me that the Etruscans adopted it from their close contacts with Carthage.

A Spartan, being asked a question, answered "No." And when the questioner said, "You lie," the Spartan said, "You see, then, that it is stupid of you to ask questions to which you already know the answer!"
