In the Natural History Museum in Mesa, there is a piece of conquistador armor that was stated to have been found somewhere in the mountains south (I think they said "20 miles south of here"). What has been running though my mind is, that it is curious that only one piece was found . . . it just seems strange that the wearer would throw off the back piece, and not the front piece. So I am left with wondering if perhaps what really happened is that they buried some armor, to prevent it from falling into the hands of hostiles, but forgot one piece, and for that reason it was not buried, and was later found. I would assume they would part with their armor either because it was to hot to wear it, or possibly because the wearer was killed.
This is some tantalizing thoughts, so I have to wonder if perhaps anyone has any idea where this armor was found, who found it, or what expedition it came from, along with possibly the expedition route . . . . interesting thoughts to say the least . .
