| has gloss | eng: Ringmail is a term that was used in the Victorian study of history to refer to personal armour constructed as series of metallic rings sewn to a fabric or leather foundation. Modern enthusiasts of Role-playing games such as World of Warcraft still use the term but modern historians prefer the term "ring armour" as being actually correct. Whereas historians of Victorian times used the terms "ring mail" and "ring armour" interchangeably and applied the term "mail" to any form of metallic body armour, modern historians reserve the term "mail" for chain mail and its varieties - specifically an interlinked mesh of metal rings. |
