Description

A bevor /ˈbiːvər/ is a piece of plate armor designed to protect the neck, much like a gorget. It can be made of a single solid piece or multiple articulated lames around the neck and chin. The bevor was typically worn in conjunction with a sallet, and later with a burgonet, in a form known as a falling buffe.
