Scale horn armour (1886.1.242.2)
JavaScale horn armour from Java, Indonesia, Asia. Collector not known. Purchased by the University of Oxford from Robert Henry Ramsden in 1878 and transferred from the Ashmolean Museum in 1886.
This is a close-up of a panel of Javanese scale armour made out of pieces of horn. It forms part of sleeveless body armour of back- and breastplate, each comprised of 16 rows of 10cm horn segments. These are shaped, polished and overlapped to represent the scales of the pangolin (scaly anteater).
