Khatangu degel of the Golden Horde warrior, XIV-XV century

Khatangu Degel is an Asian type of brigandine, which was very popular among Tatar-Mongol warriors in the Golden Horde.

This model was widespread in XIV-XV centuries. It is very comfortable and provides with perfect protection during trainings, medieval fencing or buhurts.

Three-holes plates are of 9*13 cm. Design is based on the images of plates, which were found in Iyi-Kulak hiding (Tuva) (Gorelik M.V. “Mongol-Tatar defensive armament in the XIV-XV centuries”).

This medieval suit of armour includes several parts:

1. Body part. It consists of back and front parts with cuts for better mobility. Two parts are fixed to each other with leather belts, installed on the shoulders and sides. Leather belts with steel or brass buckles allow adjusting the size of body protection, if necessary.
2. Wide spaulders. They are fixed with leather belts and completely covers all upper part of the arm.
3. Thighs’ protection. Two large brigandine pieces have wide loops on their upper part, so belt can be easily passed through these loops. Belt with thigh protection is worn under the body part.
4. Groin protection. It is attached with belts to the body part.
