This haubergeon is crafted from titanium flat rings that have been dome riveted. Titanium not only makes very strong and durable chainmail, but it also weighs considerably less than steel. This allows the wearer to don chainmail protection that has the strength of riveted steel and weight more in line with aluminum. As a bonus, titanium does not rust.
The haubergeon was a widely used defense, both geographically and in time. It was used by warriors as varied as Classical-Era Celts to Medieval warriors, making chainmail one of the longest-lived defenses in history. Haubergeon and its parent word Hauberk come from the Old Frankish word ‘’halsberg’’ which originally is a reference to a mail item that protects the throat.
Though the inventors of mail are in dispute, the top contenders are the 3rd Century BCE Celtic tribes who resided in modern-day Romania or the Etruscans of the Italian Peninsula. The Roman historian Varro attributes its creation to the Celts. No armor may be as cross-cultural and ubiquitous as mail, for it spread beyond Europe to the Middle East, India, and onwards to Japan - a testament to its usefulness
