<p>194.150.138.56: </p> <hr /> <div>A '''hauberk''' is a full length coat made of [[maille]] usually worn over a [[gambeson]] (a padded jacket). A hauberk usually extended to the knee and was split in the front and back to the crotch -- allowing the wearer to ride a [[horse]]. The sleeves could extend to the elbow or wrist. <br /> <br /> This type of [[armour]] was popular in the [[11th century]] and the early part of the [[12th century]] as oft times the sole body armour worn. [[Chausses]] appear in the 11th century in a abbreviated form and become more prevalent in the late [[12th century|12th]] and [[13th century|13th centuries]].<br /> <br /> A shorter maille shirt which extended only to the waist was called a [[byrnie]].<br /> <br /> ''See also:''<br /> * [[maille]]<br /> * [[armour]]<br /> [[category:armour]]<br /> aaa</div>
