Indian Armguard

Thank you again Ibrahiim, and indeed these images really do help. While I am not sure if Paroosevelt will be back, he has posted an interesting topic. As I indicated earlier, the references I checked had little data specific to Sind itself, but there are others I plan to look into.
I am reminded that this area of India had key importance to the British Raj and considerable history is focused there. Possibly this vambrace may be a focal point which may inspire more research to learn more....

It goes back to the old adage, 'if only this could talk' . In this way, these old arms and armour do indeed, if only to inspire us to learn the stories they would tell.
