Lorica Segmentata-believed to have been introduced in the ranks of the Roman Army during the first century A.D. and widely used at the height of the Roman Empire. This Roman Lorica Segmenta is constucted of 16 gauge high carbon steel. Although it never completely replaced the mail (Lorica Hamata) and scale armour (Lorica Squamata), for the modern mind the Lorica Segmentata typifies the Roman soldier. It is closely copied from a type of Lorica found in Newstead, Scotland, that dates from the second century A.D. This armour is quite flexible and allows plenty of freedom of movement.
