The earliest known armors worn in Japan were of either keiko or tanko type. The keiko was of lamellar construction with overlapping bronze or iron scales laced together with leather or fabric. The tanko, on the other hand, was constructed entirely of horizontal iron plates joined by rivets. The tanko's rigid cuirass, shaped to the body, was higher in the back and opened at the center front; the right front panel (missing in this example) was hinged at the side to admit the body. The complete tanko would have included a helmet of plate with a deep neck guard, neckplates, shoulderplates, arm guards, and a deep skirt.
