The "bulletproof vests" of the Greeks of Ancient

The "bulletproof vests" of the Greeks of Ancient

The "bulletproof vests" of the Greeks of Ancient From ancient times to protect the chest 
of each fighter 
was a priority and "Chest", an essential and necessary part 
equipment of every soldier for his protection.



The "bulletproof vests" of the Greeks of Ancient
Strange as it seems if the breastplate consisted of reinforced 
fabrics with body temperature applied to the holder 
Thorax and so survive the arrows. 

This equipment is now called bulletproof, is the evolution of Thoracic ... 

The modern bulletproof vests are made from a material called Kevlar. 


This material is resilient as cotton and 5 times more powerful and 
resistant than steel! So if someone manages and cut a 
bulletproof vest, you will see that it consists of many layers 
this material. 

The reason that the weave of the material is 
"Bias" is because its purpose is to absorb the kinetic 
energy of the probe smoothly to the curb and to disperse in 
greatest possible surface! 

Ie when a ball 
hit up, then fails to pierce our 
penetrate. In contrast, impinging on the very surface and presses 
the waistcoat in our body, resulting in just one injured 
surface of our body (which is "touched" with a vest 
power). Just say that he did the "Chest"
