During the Peloponnesian War, the breastplate was a common sight on battlefields as well as in the inventories of blacksmiths, as Athens clashed with Sparta.[1]

Behind the scenes
The Athenian Breastplate, a piece of armor in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, has three variants, each distinct from the others.
In the same game, the first variant's model is shared by Captain's Chest and Heitor's Breastplate.
The second variant's model is shared by Olympian Breastplate.
The third variant of the Athenian Breastplate is based on archaic period hoplite breastplates.[2] It shares its model with the Minotaur Torso, another piece of armor in the same game. It was also used as the model for multiple breastplates lying around in the landscape of the game, including Theseus' Breastplate while it was on display within the armory of the Daidalos Fort in Messara.
