Dual Balanced Armure

The spartans armor was made of bronze.the primary weapon they used was a spear of around 7-9 feet.they would also use a short sword called a xiphos. It was a secondary weapon of choice.

The guidon, also referred to as the colours or the standard, is an important and time honored piece of the military's history that is still observed and revered today. The guidon is thought to have originated from ancient Egytptian times, where it was believed to have represented rulers and the armies they commanded. The idea endured well into medieval European times as it was used to depict each commanders' specific coat of arms. This is so that each soldier could see through the dust and smoke created from the battlefield where their particular regiment was located, so as not to be separated from them.

Phillip II, Alexander’s father had developed the Macedonian phalanx, evolving it from the hoplite phalanx. It was an 8 to 36 men deep rectangular mass formation made for heavy infantry soldiers. The simple Greek formation had been made more adaptable by Phillip II of Macedon and Alexander the Great. The primary unit of Alexander’s phalanx was the syntagma that was usually 16 men deep. Each of these soldiers was armed with the sarrissa, which was a 13-21-foot spear. In formation, the first five of these ranks held their sarissas horizontally facing the advancing enemy, with each of these five ranks being squished together, practically on each others heels. The residual 11 ranks either rested their spears on the shoulders of the men in front of them or they held their sarissas vertically. Due to the unfamiliarity with this formation, opposing soldiers were left intimidated by it.

It is being known that clothes make a man or a woman and by all means, this is a true statement regarding the United States military. Soldier’s uniforms symbolize everything from branch, rank, position, loyalty, and prestigious. The image of a sharp outfit creates a psychological, moral booster and spirit de corps of Soldiers. As a general rule, Soldiers are identified by their uniforms. Each uniform has multiple components that have a legacy and a history behind. Although Soldiers have pride in wearing the United States Army Uniform, a few of them don’t know the origin and purpose of each part of the uniform. Every part has its purpose, and it was strategically made based on the necessities in the battlefield.

White used similes to compare armadillos to a “blind knight” (l.9), like medieval knights, armadillos are covered in armor, a soft shell that surrounds their body as their defense mechanism, but even

Socks leveled the knee with an affixed tassel. Robbed in custom made cloaks and capes that drape the body, men’s fashion marked a powerful statement. Designed differently quickly identified position, kings, lords, nobles, knights and peasants. Nonetheless, clothing was warm and comfortable and always suited for battle. It appears the fashion design switched because currently lady’s garments resemble the men of the medieval era. Yet during that period, lady’s gothic robes swept the floor surrounded with a matching scarf and cape. The chosen cloth, whether for men or women, usually radiant in color, portrayed the crafty work prepared by selected seamstress (Bednarz, Miyares, Schug, & White, 2006). My love, words are too vague to put into picture the beauty of these incredible clothing.

In the cleavage area has vertical line as well as horizontal on the dress. The detail the artist put into making sure the dress, belt had the right amount of details to catch everyone’s eye who took time to view his figure. The vertical line on the tassel and the knot tie just right to display the left side of the figure waist line. Indicates the figure was a petite woman. The hair is wavy in the front and pulled into a ponytail at the back. I feel there were serval focal points with in the piece after reexamine the figure the three times. Each time something else stood out shifting my focus from the original focal point. There are many repeats of all the lines with in the figure. The artist only has half of the figure's feet and arms expose which displays start and stopping points for the gown. I feel the use of the white marble may display the cold hardness of the figures heart. The smooth texture of the marble gives a life like feel of the figure. The chair has legs of an animal

The largest component of the army was the infantry composed of hoplites (citizens fighting in a full set of armour). They went into battle protected by a helmet, breastplate, and greaves (shin guards), carrying a large round shield and long spear. The state would sometimes issue such equipment to citizens who could not afford a set of their own.

Her complex clothing calls attention to her exposed breast, very slim waist and wide hips, exaggerating her sexual features. These exaggerated features are caused by her ornamental dress. The naturalism shown in this sculpture is common in Minoan art, just as the patterns, colors and folds bring the typical Minoan dresses alive. Her body is mostly proportional, except for her hands which seem to be too small for her body. Not a common detail on Minoan sculptures so it's most likely not intentional. The Nike of Samothrace is an example of Hellenistic sculpture. Nike's wings are open and the diagonal thrust of her body makes it seem as if she's turning while moving forward. The details on the marble show her gown still tugged by the breeze created as she landed on the front of a ship. Her body is farily Classical, except for the thickness of her hips. The texture of her feathers, the flutter of her clothing and the openness of her body gives an illusion that captures attention as never

They would they would wear dresses and aprons dresses in everyday life work. For battle they would wear robes with leather amour and a bit of chain metal.

The pauldron was similar to a vest, in which it provided protection across the upper back and across the breastplate. Next, there is torso armor. Torso armor was the breastplate, fauld, tasset, and plackart. The breastplate protected the chest and the plackart covered the lower half of the breastplate as a reinforcement to the armor. The fauld protected the abdomen and the tasset was almost like a skirt of metal and was used to cover the gap between the thigh armor and fauld.

At first it was chainmail then it was plate armour. Chainmail is thousands of small metal rings connected to protect someone. It weighed around 25 kilograms (56 pounds) which is heavy when you are running around in battle. Over the chainmail they wore padded cotton jackets called aketons and on top of that they wore tunics called hauberks. Later, they switched to plate armour because it was more protective.

Gray swordsman pants are all he wears save his black leather boots and a matching belt. His spiky, nut-brown hair is wildly tousled as if his hand has gone through it numerous times. All six feet of him looms over the woman as a small, but a visible smirk of confidence plays on his thick lips and his storm gray eyes twinkle with amusement. He carries a steel edged cutlass, perfectly holding it at an undaunted horizon, leveled at his nose. He is prepared for any attack as he clearly does not underestimate her size. Below this embroidery, the name ~Orla~ rests in the right

O Connmhachain, which is pronounced like “O Conn wah sheen”, is an Irish Gaelic name that was changed to Conway when my Great Grandfather immigrated from County Cork, Ireland, to Brooklyn, New York, USA. The traditional symbol of my family is the red rose, which is claimed to symbolize fidelity and love by members of my family. Thus, I chose “Fide et Amore”, or Fidelity and Love in Latin, for my motto. Instead of a traditional knight’s helm, I chose to use a marching band shako, as my father and I were both in marching band. The design of this shako is actually based on Central Dauphin’s shako, but with the colors adjusted to black, red, and white to match the shield. I chose red to represent my family’s history of serving in the military, white to represent the serenity that our family enjoys, and black to represent the grief from my recently deceased

The mixture of realism and idealism allows the sculpture to stand and symbolize other figures at the same time. These figures have a style of idealism especially the way Hercules and Prometheus look. They are both very muscular. The muscles have defining curves, showing that the body is flexed and in action. These ideal human forms also show that the symmetry is not being equal, but the proportions of these individuals make a whole composition. Furthermore, the male figures are more human than human. They are idealized in softer cravings with smaller heads and the hair is very stylized. The movements of the male figures are emphasized in a contrapposto position. Both are counterposed and weight is shifted on a feet. These shapes come together and give the effect of how the real body looks like. Moreover, it suggests the figure’s characteristics. For example, Hercules’s weight is on his right foot and left foot is placed as a movement. The indication of his dynamic movement reflects his strong character. Prometheus’s kneeing contrapposto position along with his anxious expression gives an insight that he is trembled with fear. The eagle’s fierce eyes, sharp beak and its threatening gesture show a strong determination of defeating Hercules. The artist inlaid eyes in all figures which helps to gain more understanding of their emotions. In fact, the
