Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't sipahis more defined by their status as, should I say, "non-hereditary knights," and not necessarily by their equipment? Couldn't a sipahi be skilled as both an archer and a heavy cavalryman? Anyway, that wasn't supposed to be an attack on your authenticity. Nice armor, nice video. Ottoman weapons and armor are indeed overlooked topics in the historical scene.
@@isamartellno problem there as sometimes its the best way to embed something to the audience by not being too technical in the details. the majority don't like that and can't wrap their heads around it. There are so many instances where their name implies their status and not their unit.
Very roughly speaking they were divided into 3 types during their heyday. Rumelian (Balkan) Sipahi who would be moderately armored and fight with lances. Anatolian Sipahi who would be lighter armored and fight with a bow and a lance. And then Kapikulu (Imperial Servant) Sipahi who would have the most amount of armor and be more similar to the Rumelian Sipahi. I imagine the armor in the video would probably only be worn by the Kapikulu Sipahi.
Sipahi is not a knigh, or similar to it. Sipahi is a man who was lended some farmland by the sultan so he would farm it for 5 years, then buy himself armor and weapons for the war. If he agrees, then he can lend it for another 5 years and so on. Typically, they would agree and the farmland would be lended continuously to his family.
@@mammi7699 I think your thinking of Timariots who were given land in return for military assistance. Sipahis didn't manage land unless they were also Timariots. Many Sipahis served in the bodyguard retinue of Timariots and Sipahis of the Sublime Porte were strictly military and had no land managing duties.
In some of the manuscripts with illustrations I’ve looked at it seems like the cavalrymen also wore the mail coats underneath their clothing or used different pieces of the armor. Its nice to see the whole set assembled
@@brainblox5629 They were Kipchacks, a different branch of Turkic people while Anatolian Turks were mostly Oghuzs. Still they were rather close, living as neighbours for many centuries until Kipchacks invaded westwards from north of Caspian sea while Oghuzs did same from south of Caspian sea lol. As an Anatolian Turk i still can read Cuman language but it is like 30% or so. Found a Cuman Christian prayer they were calling God "Sky Father" coming from Sky God of Tengrism similar as we did. And contents of the prayer was very similar to ours despite they became Christians while we became Muslims, we weren't same people for sure but the difference was rather small..

I made it myself. It is block printed which I did also. I am thinking of making another one now though for when I wear all this. I would like it to be thinner than this one.
I only do Buhurt duels in it. That’s what the pictures are from at the end of the video. I wouldn’t do buhurt melee with it just because you wouldn’t want to wear the mail and then there would be a ton of gaps. If you want burhurt eastern armor, your best to go with something that has small over lapping plates. Though I do use this for Harnischfechten and it is fine. But that is always done with the mail and you don’t take repeated bashing hits.
If you really want a easternish buhurt gear - mongol or russian armor will be the best you can get to achieve protection and some historical truth. It's definitely ain't new and original way but it's the only way you can get both goals. Hatanga degel - something about a equivalent to western brigandine. Or russian scale armor that were used in the end of XIV and in XV if my memory serves me right
The armor provides similar protection. Main thing is that the styles of fighting were different. So, the armor developed more according to the cultural style of warfare.
How did this armour differ from East European armour as the two (I think) mutually inspired each other and thus came out very similar from what I can tell
Some aspects are very similar. As you are right that they were all one region, so influenced each other. Probably the most distinctive Turkish piece would be the Krug style torso protection.
Nice Korazin This type of armor is often referenced as Indian in the Anglosphere since the British took India but pretty much the whole middle east wore this type of armor for centuries. Russian armors since the 15th century until the late 17th century were pretty similar to this design, most likely because they bordered a lot of Muslim kingdoms.
Eye Sockeds are kinda wrong. and also some wear iron masks. people know it as cuman war mask but its turkic mask used in ottoman too. at late period it turns to chain coif with longer helm with eye sockeds. wrist guard looks little off too. its usualy many plates overlaps for allow sipahi to use bow instead of cut lines. overal its pretty perfect and cool armor. but one must consider they are not heavy cav more like archer medium cav. also shield usualy hangs on back or side on top of shoulder allow sipahi to shoot block at the same time.
They constituted the main strength of the army of the Ottoman Empire. 1- Tımarlı sipahis would join the war during wartime and engage in agriculture when there was no war. 2- All of the Timarli sipahis were horse and bow-bearing soldiers, their characteristics were to ride horses quickly and shoot arrows from the horse. Another reason why the Turks were successful in European wars was that they had the ability to move quickly with light armor against heavily armored knights.
That orange turban is completely out of place. They used to wear white turban, not any other color. It is actually the kefen (shroud) that they’d be buried in and they had to be white.
When you are fighting in armor you are dripping with sweat. However, linen fabrics help cool you. Also, remember that the region of Turkish army’s was not like desert. It gets cold in their region too.
This is not Arab armor, this is Turkish. Turkey and the larger Anatolian region is largely grassland and steppes. The sun and dessert heat wasn't a major concern with the geography of the desert.
