Armour as a word started to appear during the Middle Ages and it comes from Old French word armure. At first armour was made of thick leather, but it evolved through mail and metal place, as well. Overall, it serves as an additional protective layer between the body and the various attacks, such as cuts. The development of personal armour was dictated by the development of technology. For example, full plate armour became popular, because it turned cost-effective when water-powered trip hammers started to be widely used.
