In ancient Japan, there were many styles of armor. Moreover, there are not only many styles, but also many kinds, and some armor shapes are very strange. Just like when we watch Japanese dramas and watch them fight, we can see that some people wear armor different from others, that is, their helmets have two big speakers. Then look down, you will find that these two horns have no effect. People who can wear this kind of armor are leaders, so the symbolic meaning of the two horns on the helmet should be greater than the actual effect.

There are many Asian countries, but few countries have a history of more than 1000 years. China and Japan are two of them. Like China's reunification, it was achieved through repeated killings, and Japanese was no exception. So with the killing of Japan, Japanese armor has gradually developed and improved, and even all armor adds up to thousands of styles. Japanese armor is also famous for its diverse styles.

The first development period of armor: from ancient times to the tenth century. Because the ancient development force is very backward, the manufacture of armor is mainly simple, such as hanging armor, which means using a rope to pass through a layer of armor and then stacking it layer by layer; For example, short armor, the props used for hanging armor are all nail pieces, while short armor uses both nail pieces and leather, mainly to protect the upper body.

The second development period of armor: 1 1 century to13rd century. The armor produced in this period has Japanese characteristics. Large armor, the original prototype is hanging armor. In order to play the role of high protection, large armor is all made of iron, and the weight of a large armor can exceed 30 kilograms. Due to the heavy weight of large armor, it is mainly used for immediate combat.

The third development period of armor:13rd century to16th century. Japan in this period was very chaotic, so the armor that appeared at this time was fully utilized. Because there were more wars in this period than in the previous two periods, the armor in this period was more light and practical, and because the armor was very light and practical, the fighting at once gradually decreased.

The fourth development period of armor:16th century to17th century. The most mainstream armor in this period is modern armor. Later, because of the development of artillery in the west, new armor appeared.

In the fifth development period of armor, there was no new armor development during this period. At this time armor is more used for decoration.
