Horse, defense of
Prior to the 14th century, horses were generally defended only by mail . During the late 14th century, there are records of horse armour but there are no surviving examples. Full plate defenses were occasionally used during the 15th and 16th centuries, although usually only a crinet and chamfron were used.
