/* Type 3: Long Mail Shirts */
===Type 3a: Long mail shirt with a 'Bayeux style' split , an integral coif and short sleeves===
''Interpreted as either a front split mail shirt or alternatively a mail shirt with mail shorts.''
The ‘mail shorts’ theory has been dismissed by Wilson [WILSON 1985] and Grape [GRAPE 1994]. They consider these images to simple show a stylised form of a long split (Type 3b).<br>
===Type 3b: Long mail shirt with a long style split , an integral coif, and short sleeves===
'''Anglo-Saxon'''<br>
