| 520 | _a"Armour in England, from the Earliest Times to the Reign of James the First" by J. Starkie Gardner is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book meticulously details the evolution of armour in England, spanning a broad timeline from ancient British tribes to the early 17th century under James I. It covers various types of armour, from the primitive plate-armours used by early Britons through the progression to more advanced mail and plate-armours during the medieval period. The opening of the text introduces the theme of the unique development of armour in Britain, contrasting it with European influences. It begins by discussing the insular characteristics of early British culture, emphasizing the distinctive weaponry and customs that emerged prior to Roman influence. Gardner provides historical accounts and archaeological references to illustrate how the British adopted and adapted military technologies, progressing from rudimentary forms of protection to the more sophisticated designs that would culminate in the renowned plate-armour of the knightly era. This establishes a foundational understanding of how Britain's martial identity was shaped by both indigenous practices and external influences. (This is an automatically generated summary.) | ||
