Armor from Novgorod - Yaroslavov-Gorodische - Rus / Byzantine - 11 century
Armor description
A very beautiful armour, made of very narrow steel scales, sewn so close that there is no leather visible. Stronger. Beautifuler. Still supple.
Such armours are known among Rus warriors (11th century), but also into baltic territory and Byzantium. Such an armour probably existed even into the antiquity, after examination of some depictions, like the "Mars of Todi"
