Metal plate beneath Linothorakes or Spolades

There is just as much evidence for Greek 5 inch thick steel armour as there is for glued linen armour.

Touche !!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ugh.

Armor is not meant to be weaponproof. I have seen 2mm thick bronze penetrated by multiple arrows (with different arrowheads) that 1cm thick laminated linen completely resisted. Of course the Greeks did not have 5 inch thick steel. I have read Blyth. I did not start out with the assumption that armor is meant to be arrow/weaponproof. Silly silly people.
