Armour istelf dates back to ancient times, shields were the first type of armour, being made of hide-covered frame or wicker, they allowed an effective defence in a time when swords (with their guards and blades) did not exist. Armour would be made of thick hides, bone and even seeds.
The first armour to have a signifianct effect after shields were invented was bronze armour, consisting of firstly just plates covering small vital areas, and then developing on into breastplates, backplates, cuirasses (the combination of both), greaves and vambraces.
Later on the armours developed into chainmail ('lorica hamata' in Roman), scale shirts ('lorica squamata' in Roman) and lamellar. In the Medieval period there was the rise of plate harnesses, which covered the entire body and were tailored to individual wearers. Plate armour was designed with a complex system with pivots and rigid sections, following the way bones are jointed.
