This is bait but I'll take it anyway.
>The name itself comes from one historian theorizing it's made of linen!
The name is literally a Greek word. Not a modern one. It's the exact word used by historical Greek authors. Pic related is Herodotus using the term. Linked post is Homer.

We know with absolute certainty the linothorax is what the Greeks called armor that was made of linen. We also know it was the armor depicted as being worn by Alexander the Great. We know what it was made of, what it looked like, and who used it. It is not modern terminology or made up assumptions.

Basically that slop you were fed by some retard on youtube is 100% wrong on all points and you're retarded.
