[PnP] Linothorax

[Alex Koponen]

I just saw a show that had a segment about linen armor. It didn't think 
that it would be nearly as good as it is.

Apparently it was quite effective and only 1/3 the weight of metal 
armor. Could be waterproofed as well.

I wonder how silk with the correct glue would work as armor? I suspect 
that it could be even better than linen.
