Breastplates were worn by the indian warriors for protection of the vital chest area from knife or arrow. With the intrusion of the white man, breastplates proved to be surprisingly effective at deflecting ball and bullet. Breastplates were also used to display wealth in the form of beads, claws, shells, etc. and to add to the overall fierce appearance of the warrior in battle.
