Since reading an article on Swiss militia arms, I've been trying to find comparative stuff from other places.  I found this masters thesis which is about the 14th century Gotland militia (which additional material on other Swedish militias).  Attempts to answer the question was all the older armour in the grave pits at Visby from the militia with a bit of isotope analysis.  If, like me,  you are a fan of mass graves or Swedish medieval militia, this one is for you :)
