Another New Scissor relief

[Medusa Gladiatrix]

Medusa

Did you change the word lorica segmentata to lorica squamata, or did I read wrong before?

How ever:
The lorica squamata protects hardly better than a lorica hamata!!!!
The only advantage is that a trident could slip away if it strike the lorica hamata in a low angle.

In no case I like to fight as a Scissor without any other helps against a retiarius hock:

Nope, I wrote squamata all the time (so much to the theory that it's unimportant in which order the letters appear as long as the first and the last are the same because you don't read every single letter :lol: ) Well, no problem though, that can happen and squamata and segmentata are really very similar words.

There is a scissor with a lorica squamata (scale armor) as Conal posted on page 1 of this thread a little bit further down. But when looking at the photos on top of page 1 there are indeed two gladiators with some kind of tunic or lorica fighting against each other, one clearly having this "scissor arm" while you can't see it with the other. Maybe he could fight different opponents (though not at the same time :wink: )
