maille rivet question?

Post by Willing Pell »

For you maille types, I was wondering at what point in history maille with a triangular rivet appeared? I have a few decent refernce volumes that show very early maille with a pin rivet.

The subject is being researched currently. Those researching it currently believe the development to take place in 13th century Germany.
