Iroquoian wooden armour. Pt 1. Introduction.

In which I talk about the history of armor in an Iroquoian context. Followed by a summary of my process of gathering resources and making a recreation of the armor shown in Champlain's "Illustrations of Algonquin dress."

If you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the comments section.

This is the first part of a series of videos in which I talk about Iroquoian armor. To view the second part, in which I show the recreation in more detail and go over some practical elements of the armor, see the link below.
