"Greeks soldiers wore light armour during Ancient Greece, making them fast and fierce warriors during battles. The basic components of Greek armour were the front breastplate, backplate, bracers and greaves. Most of the Greek armour was made of bronze or of brass. The greeks wore muscle armour to which gave them the perception to their enemies that they were muscular and fit" (Greek Armour and Spartan Armour).
