The Lorica Hamata is a type of Chainmail armor used during the Roman Republic at late periods as a standard-issue armor for the secondary troops (Auxilia). They were mostly manufactured out of bronze or iron.
Chainmail was worn by Roman troops before the introduction of the superior Lorica Segmentata, or segmented plates of armor.
Our replica is superb, made of 18 gauge 9mm steel rings. Premium leather trim lines the neck and the shoulder flaps. This set is fully wearable and can be put on display.
PLEASE NOTE: This Hamata includes a brass clasp that attaches to the shoulder flaps. However, you will need to remove some rings for the screw to fit through and attach the clasp.
