Here is some more pictures of the Scale mail or lamellar armours. Here is a great set. This I believe is Greek-Eastern Roman Lamellar used between 1200 A.C. and 1456 used by Ottoman, Eastern Roman Empire, and other Eastern nations. http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/images/h2/h2_36.25.53a,b.jpg http://www.asianart.com/exhibitions/tibet-armor/large/02_2_back.jpg Here's some late Byzantine lamellar or Varangian. Chainmail could be used with the Lamellar or Scalemail, what ever the maker wants. http://georgefitzhume.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/img_0652.jpg
