3 The usual types of armor in Ladakh were chain or scale armor. The fact that they are recorded as coming from Guge is significant, for Guge must have had ancient relations with Persia; 4 and the chain mail of Guge was most probably of Persian origin. The plain fact remains that the Tibetan blacksmiths do not turn out iron chain mail, nor are they capable of making it; so that they are most unlikely ever to have made it at any earlier time. The supposition of an import is therefore the only sol...u- tion of the problem.
The Wei Tsang t'u chi, a description of Tibet by Ma Shao-yun and Mei Si-she"ng written in 1792, has the following note on the outfits of in many Lama temples.
