Armor

* Woosnam-Savage 2017 p63
"Other European countries produced armour, although most chose to combine elements of Italian and German fashions. However, during the second half of the 15th century some other national characteristics do seem to emerge such as the Spanish kettle-hat, the cabacete, and bevor, the barbote."
