Try thinking. The ideal armor depends on the environment you're in, the Phalanx is a general term for fighting in formation and all that comes with it.

Thracians have never fought naked as I know.
That means OP is dumb and doesn't know history - the only prehistoric armour is a rag placed on the inguinal area.
