When I was a child, I always wondered what this iron metal-like thing which is seen on the shoulder was for.
Was it just used for costumes or did it mean something?
But Finally, i found the answer.
It was used to protect the neck from a sword. Hence, Therefore, it was placed on the left or right shoulder, or both shoulders, to avoid beheading.
I never thought that there was so much research done in 1988 B R Chopra's Mahabharata TV serial, Kudos to the team!
