The British Museum Greek Hoplite Armor / Armour ( Red, Black figure Vases Sculpture)

[Stefanoitch]

can you imagine that people actually fought with this stuff!! It must be very heavy and uncomfortable to wear

@Stefanoitch I don,t think so, you can better ask the reenatctors. Without the armor you would be quickly dead on the battle field. The Corinthian helmets are not too heavy they are wonderful to look on and great to wear. Thanks for watching.

@conncork Where can i join one of these reenactments?? I know its really geek but it would be awsome to get a glimpse of how it was like to walk into battle in a phalanx formation with full hoplite armor!!
