lamellar armour : ウィキペディア英語版 | lamellar armour
Lamellar armor is a type of early body armor, made from small rectangular plates (scales or ''lamellae'') of iron, leather (rawhide), or bronze laced into horizontal rows. Lamellar armor was used over a wide range of time periods in Eastern Europe, the Middle East and across Asia, including Japan. Lamellar armor is one of three early body types, the other two being scale armour and laminar armour. ==Description== Lamellar armor consists of small platelets known as lamellae, which are punched and laced together, typically in horizontal rows. Lamellae can be made of metal, leather ''cuir bouilli'', horn, stone, bone or more exotic substances. Metal lamellae may be lacquered to resist corrosion or for decoration. Unlike scale armor, which it resembles, lamellar armor is not attached to a cloth or leather backing (although it is typically worn over a padded undergarment). In the orient, lamellar armor eventually overtook scale armor in popularity as lamellar restricted the users movements much less than scale armour.〔(''Oriental Armour'', H.
