      Soldiers in armour

      The men are wearing armour that seems to be the military attire of the time. The gold circle and design on the torso protector of the man on the right seems to be a family crest. The man second from right is wearing a helmet with a frontal ornament called a tentsuki. The man in the centre holds a baton of command, a tool used to give orders on the battlefield. The man second from left stands with a flag bearing his family crest and holds a bow and sword. This seems to a photograph from an exhibition of battle attire.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number51‐14‐0]

                A soldier in armour

                This armour seems to be a domaru or torso protector. It was a simple one originally used by foot soldiers in the medieval Japan. But when a long sleeve garment and helmet were added, military commanders started to wear them. In this photograph, the soldier wears a face protector under the helmet, hand protectors, shin protectors and holds a long spear.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number55‐24‐5]
