Maasai knight by toddmcarthur‘There’s a passage in “Guns, Germs & Steel” which posits that if African peoples had been able to tame and domesticate, say, rhinos, that their armies would have trampled all over the sissy equine cavalries of other nations.My knight is styled after the Maasai of Kenya: due to the warm climate, his armor consists of leathers and woven fibers, decorated with beads and jewelry, with only a few key metal parts. His helmet is styled after the lion hat worn by Maasai men who have hunted and killed a lion entirely on their own.’ -- source link
