Hungarians use the sturgeon based glue too, but that does not rule out a complex combination of elements. These people were after all, in many ways more advanced than we are today. Mind you, you would definately be attracting flys when out on a sunny day in Greece. :| lol:
i have toyed wit hthe idea of a thin leather layer on the outside, of my subarmalis to give it waterproofing, at least on the shoulders.
I am tempted to try it on a linothorax instead though, as you do not have the extra weight of another layer of metal armour on it, ie chain mail or a seg.
Looking forward to seeing pictures of your experiments Matt.
