Chain mail is made by creating a weave of multiple interlocking ringlets of iron or steel that, as a whole, are stronger than simply the sum of it parts; this Chain Mail Hauberk (Shirt) is a piece of body-protection that saw widespread use. Known throughout ancient times as a warriors body armor, the hauberk remained a primary protection until the advent of plated steel armor. Although the effectiveness of bare mail armors was somewhat lessened by the advancement of blunt and piercing weapon designs, chainmail remained an added component beneath plated armour due to its strength, flexibility and ease of wear.
