Best foundations for the study of Islamic Arms and Armor?
Question:Does anyone know their names and where are they located? I know that Topkapi and the Military Museum in Istanbul have great collections, and so does other museums in Europe and North America...but are there universities and institutions in the USA that teach or are willing to teach Islamic and Medieval arms and armor? If yes, what are their names?
Answers:
You might consider the Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology which is part of the University of Toronto, Canada. Not only is it an outstanding programme, the Institute has strong links to the Royal Ontario Museum, the university's excellent programmes in metallurgy and Islamic Studies
