A "hamata" is what the Romans called a sleeveless or short-sleeved chainmail shirt. In addition to the plainer shirts this was equipped with a reinforced shoulder part. The additional chainmail collar was connected to the shirt with a steel buckle.
This shirt is only suitable for slim legionairies and is therefore offered at a special price. It is worn with a thin tunic, not with a padded gambeson.
