Greaves

According to 1 Samuel 17:6, the Philistine soldier Goliath wore bronze greaves, in addition to a bronze helmet and armour. The Hebrew word for greaves is only used in this passage in the Bible. In depictions from the ancient Near East, soldiers are always shown with unprotected legs, so the greaves in the description of Goliath are unusual.
