Rough translation from the french--

Apologies if this link is already posted elsewhere. A quick site search didn't turn it up. I ran across it googling for winchester bible illustrations.

Of particular note, an excellent diagram of a norman sword belt. In English, for some strange reason.

Corby,

Thanks! I had seen a small part of that about a year ago, but had lost it and sure couldn't remember the name of the group. They've got som really impressive-looking stuff.

Thanks a lot Corby. I have been looking for someone who has a better resource to gambesons of the time, so I practically jumped out of my seat when that was one of the main articles. And my girlfriend speaks French, so she might even be able to read the original. Awesome.
