[edit] Splint Skirt

Splints being another word for lames, this seems to be a 'splints skirt'. However, I havn't seen it in any effigy works. The only place I've seen it is in combination with full plate, and then only on horsemen. It seems to have covered the gap between knees and waist previously covered the longer chainmail byrnie. It may have seen use with chainmail as well, but the Bayeux tapestry doesn't seem to show it, nor do any of the crusader effigies. However, it's unlikely that the effigies depicted that particular bit of the panopoly. Theblindsage 09:11, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
