A [Greek](https://www.worldhistory.org/disambiguation/greek/) "bell cuirass" from the [Archaic Period](https://www.worldhistory.org/Archaic_Period/), made sometime between the 7th and 6th Century BCE. This cuirass came from the Greek mainland and was the antecedent to the later and more recognizable "muscle cuirass". This breastplate is in the National Archaeological Museum of Spain.
