Linothorax vs Spolas

[PMBardunias]

Could someone please present some forensic (not literature) archaeological, hard evidence that shows glued linen was ever used as armor in classical Greece?

I don't think anyone in this discussion right now believes in glued linen. That was a nice, but completely unsupportable hypothesis of Connelly's. Hence the title of my article: "Don't get stuck on glued linen"

As for physical evidence of linen corslets, that's an unrealistic standard given the paucity of archeological finds. I'm fairly confident that 4th C Spartans had a lambda blazon on their aspides, though I have yet to see one excavated. In fact, the only plausably Spartan aspis face I know of does not have one!

Even the putative leather spolades are still hearsay at best because they have yet to be published. There is in fact an interesting linen article of Etruscan origin. If anyone should come across: W. Helbig, "Oggetti trovati nella tomba Cornetana detta del guerriero," Adl (1874) 257-258, it describes a lost linen article that was in Berlin prior to WWII that was in some way associated with armor. An imprint of Etruscan textile, though probably not armor can be seen here, and this paper provides interesting information about how linen would have been woven if anyone is trying to duplicate it.
