I think Cristina is guessing right about the evolution of Greek dress using the folk art museums to aid her research.
The mans head dress particularly might aid those who think what to wear under the Corinthian Helemt. (Well done madam!)
Arahova is in Phokis about 700 meters above the level of the sea.
Temperures drop below 0 in winter. This costume gives the idea of what ancient Greeks might be wearing in winter (Phokeans or Locrians or Amphisian Doreans in this case).
My opininion though would be that this costumes are closer to the Byzantine times rather than ancient.
Comerus, prices of exact replicas from the folk art museum are murderous at least for my finances.
Kind regards
Stefanos
