	Armour History (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Armour made of rigid plates was used by the ancient Greeks and Romans and reappeared in Europe about the 13th century.
		Apart from helmets, armour made of large plates was probably unknown in western Europe during the Middle Ages, and mail was the main defense of the body and limbs during the 12th and 13th centuries.
		Thus plate armour of steel superseded mail during the 14th century, at first by local additions to knees, elbows, and shins, until eventually the complete covering of articulated plate was evolved.
