Besagew's were circular plate devices attached to armored breastplates. Their purpose was to provide protection to the underarm/armpit area of the wearer. Medium sized, they often required a specially designed breastplate to be effective (this was cost prohibitive). They grew out of favor for chain mail and other more flexible components.
