Native American bone breastplate

This topic came up before. These are definitely not armor; they're big pieces of bead work. Look and see if there are any flat places on the bone beads. That is one of the signs my grandmother told me to always look for, although these days they probably fake that as well.

Just because you are prepared to die in battle, doesn't mean you won't try to avoid it. We did carry shields after all.
