According to Norse mythology, the Valkyries(also called Valkyrjor) were the daughters or attendants of Odin, the chief god (also called Wotan). The Norse believed the Valkyries came to battlefield, chose those who would die, and carried them back to Valhalla (a fallen warrior can be seen here in front of a Valkyrie). Their leader was Brynhild (also spelled Brunhild, Brunhilde, Brynhildr). This illustration dates to 1913.

Three-Quarter Field Armor of Anime Construction 1550-1570 Innsbruck. This armor is complete with a breast and backplate called an anime that is entirely composed of overlapping segments (lames) held together by rivets and internal leather bands. During the mid-16th century a new form of lightly armored horseman developed, armed with pistols rather than the traditional lance. These cavalrymen often favored this segmented design as it offered more flexibility across the chest to ride comfortably and reload their weapons. An open-faced helmet also helped aiming. The spiked bar defense protected against sword cuts across the face.. Steel and leather . Workshop of Michel Witz, the Younger
