Description

A screen-worn costume for one of Athena’s elite archers in the season 5 episodes “Amphipolis Under Siege” and “Looking Death in the Eye.” Nearly complete, it’s only missing the beaded helmet, upper armbands, and footwear. The kneeguards, belt, and top are made of cowhide leather, but the corset, skirt pieces, and sleeves appear to be made of ostrich leather using skin from the bird’s body and scaly legs.
