A bevor is a piece of medieval plate armour designed to protect the neck, much like a gorget. This bevor is made of multiple articulated lamés around the neck and chin and includes locking pin. The bevor was typically worn in conjunction with a sallet, and combined to provide protection for the whole of the head and neck. The bevor was named to suggest it was a dribble plate.

A versatile and simple gorget is an excellent option for any infantry, mercenary or knight in between the years 1400 to 1480. The use of this piece is the result of the development of defensive weapons trying to protect the open space between chest and neck, and the use is general, proving his superb protection.
