Wouldn’t a Segmentata count as lamellar, rather than plate?
Can someone pls explain what’s going on here
Plate armor is generally accepted to have been created ~1400 AD in Europe.
The Romans, however, had a form of armor made of steel plates back ~100 AD, and are thus mocking the later ‘barbarians’ for thinking they invented it.
Long before the Romans, the Myceneans in Greece had a period around ~1500 BCE in which they used armor made of overlapping bronze plates
