lorica segmentata for kidsThis armor for children is based on the Corbridge type lorica segmentata from the 1st century AD. This type of armor is named after the town of Corbridge in the north of England, where remains of Loricae segmentatae have been found. This area is where the old Corstopitum fort stood, an important base for the Roman army at Hadrian's wall. This armor is made of aluminum, making it light in weight and easy to wear for children, and also maintenance free.
