Homer Pavlos: Nolan’s costume designer contacted the renowned Greek metal artist @HellenicArmors — known as ‘the modern Hephaestus.’ He makes historically accurate Greek armor.

Right: What the Greek artist makes — historically accurate gold lamellar armor with red tassels.
Nolan chose the bone spine over the golden hoplite. This tells you everything about the Odyssey’s approach to Greek history.
