THE arming of Eastern races depended on the standard of their culture and the materials to hand as well as on the climate and terrain. Whereas in the North of Africa mail was worn, as it was in Arabia, Turkey, Persia, Egypt and India, the Kaffir of the south fought almost naked and carried only a large hide shield for his defense.
