armors. XIII-XIV century
Artist Vladimir Semenov. ![]() Beginning from the XIV century in Russia they are encountered armors, in which are mixed up the different types of armors. Armors could be scaly on the hem and lamellar (or annulated) on the breast and the back. Sleeves and hem of hauberk were finished by long tongue-shaped plates. The breast of soldier additionally protected by the large plates, which were put on above the armors. Later, in THE XVI century, they was called name "zertsal", since their smooth metallic plates specially were ground, were polished to the luster, and they were sometimes covered with gold, silver and were engraved. Similar armors cost very dearly, Privates, to soldiers they were inaccessible and we could rush in the field of conflict exclusively by princes, by the governors and by the first-rate boyars. The heavily armed soldier in THE XIV century had in the composition of silent weapon a spear and a sword. In XII-XIII centuries in Russia were used the swords of all it was specific, known at that time in West Europe. Basic types were the so-called "karolingskiye swords" - earlier (its length - 80-90 cm, and the width of blade - 5-6 cm) and "romance", emergent are somewhat later with the the disk-shaped navershiyem. Approximately to the XIII century sword served mainly as the chopping weapon. "Posekosha we throw mercilessly", speaks about it Laurentian chronicle. In the second-half of the XIII century appeared the splitting blade ("To prizvavshe to okontsyu tyuey pronzut and we throw"). In the XIII century the blade of sword is lengthened and is strengthened its handle, which increases the impact force of this terrible weapon. In the XIV century were disseminated large swords - to 120-140 cm by length. A. Yurasovskiy |
