There seem to be two distinct types of 'mirror' armor: One more analogous to a coat of plates--worn over a full suit of chain mail; and a second similar to banded mail, where the metal plates are held together by chainmail. Theblindsage ( talk) 03:22, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
The history part of this lemma is extremely incomplete and eurocentric (did not know Armenia was in Europe by the way). The oldest pectoral discs, squares and what nots appear in Asia, in the Middle East, in early Iranian and Neo-Assyrian art. Pectoral discs have been in constant use in South Asia since antiquity as well (see fat little demons on the Sanchi Buddhist stupa and warriors on Hindu temples f.i. Deogarh) into the modern period, and from there traveled to Southeast Asia and China, and were probably reintroduced from South Asia to Central Asia and the Middle East in the medieval period. 87.212.52.128 ( talk) 06:59, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
