Description

Pectoral. Greece, 4th century BC. Bronze. Measures: 18 x 18 x 3 cm. Pectoral belonging to a Greek hoplite's armor, dated in the 4th century B.C., entirely made of gilded bronze. This specimen still preserves the rings and straps that held it to the soldier's body. Given the Greek territorial expansion, many peasants gained access to new agricultural lands and saw their incomes increase. With this income they were able to afford military equipment that allowed them to go to war, fighting side by side with the aristocrats. The figure of the hoplite soldier was born, linked to a specific type of combat: the close formation. This type of battle formation had a direct impact on the socio-political organization of the Greek polis. The hoplite peasants and merchants realized that the ideals of solidarity and comradeship that prevailed on the battlefield did not translate into real equality of rights in the city. The aristocrats continued to hold power and administer justice arbitrarily. For this reason, they began to demand greater participation in the public life of the city in order to become part of the community. This demand was the seed of the later emergence of democracy. Dimensions 18 x 18 x 3 cm.
