Greek
The Greek Argos "Bell" Cuirass,
Early 8th Century
The
Greek Argos Bell Muscle Cuirass had a front and back plate - simply
decorated in the form of the anatomy of the torso, with narrow
embossed ridges around the arm holes, the waist and the hips. In the
second half of the 6th century the bell cuirass declined in
popularity and was superseded by the linen corselet as the basic
hoplite body armor. However, the bronze cuirass continued in use and
gradually evolved into the elegant muscled cuirass. It lasted until
the end of the Roman era 1,000 years later, and became part of the
uniform of senior officers."- Peter Connolly in his book Rome and
Greece at War.
