To review the etymology<\/strong> from harness<\/strong>, we must go back to the Nordic, where we find the word herrnest<\/em>. This term is formed from herr<\/em> (which can be translated as \"army\"<\/strong>) and nest<\/em> (referring to \"Travel provisions\"<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

Herrnest<\/em> came to french as harnais<\/em>, which is the closest etymological antecedent of harness<\/strong>. The concept has several meanings in our idiom<\/strong>, recognized by the Royal Spanish Academy<\/strong> (RAE<\/strong>) in your dictionary.<\/p>\n

\"straps\"<\/p>\n

A harness is a frame with buckles and straps that allows you to secure, hold or carry someone or something.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The harness as a safety and transport element<\/h2>\n

The harness is called frame<\/strong> which, equipped with buckles<\/strong> and straps<\/strong>, is placed in the body<\/strong> for secure, carry or restrain someone or something<\/strong>. Harnesses are used in different fields.<\/p>\n

In sports and recreational activities such as rafting<\/strong>, the kitesurf<\/strong>, the speleology<\/strong> and the mountaineering<\/strong>, for example, a harness is used. It can be about waist harness<\/strong> (which has a single anchor point), integral harness<\/strong> or combo harness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

According to specialists, the waist harness minimizes the risk of injury<\/strong> since, due to the area of \u200b\u200bthe body where the traction is carried out in a fall, it contributes to the elimination of a percentage of the kinetic energy. The integral harness, on the other hand, can cause whiplash if the person falls head down, although it is still used in some cases.<\/p>\n

Garrison of Cavalries<\/h2>\n

It is called a harness, on the other hand, to the lining of a chivalry<\/strong>. It is, therefore, the straps and ornaments that allow riding a horse or that serve for the equine to pull a carriage.<\/p>\n

The characteristics of the harnesses were changing with the passage of weather<\/strong>. They arose around the 4th century BC<\/strong>, when the rigid yokes<\/strong>. Then he went to a strap harness<\/strong> that served the same purpose although it distributed the weight of the load better.<\/p>\n

\"straps\"<\/p>\n

The set of straps and ornaments of a cavalry is called a harness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The harness as armor<\/h2>\n

Another meaning of harness that collects the RAE<\/strong> makes mention of a set of defensive elements<\/strong> that are attached and secured by buckles and straps. A harness, in this frame, is a armor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It can be said that a harness or armor is a defensive weapon<\/strong>. This type of clothing provides protection to different areas of the body, minimizing injury<\/strong> and wounded before the attacks of the enemy.<\/p>\n

Throughout the history<\/strong>, there were multiple types of harnesses. It is common to remember the metal harnesses that were used in the Middle Ages<\/strong>Although armor could also be made from wood, leather, animal bones, or other materials.<\/p>\n

Many times the notion of harness refers specifically to the white armor<\/strong>, Full armor<\/strong> or plate armor<\/strong>. Used in the last part of the Middle Ages, it consisted of pieces of iron<\/strong> or steel bound with rivets and straps.<\/p>\n

A Catalan municipality<\/h2>\n

Harness<\/strong>Finally, it is the name of a municipality<\/strong> which is part of the province of Tarragona<\/strong>, in the autonomous community of Catalonia<\/strong> (Spain<\/strong>). It integrates the region of the High ground<\/strong> and is located on the border with the community in Aragon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The baroque church of the XVII century<\/strong> raised on the remains of a Gothic temple and the edifice<\/strong> of the town hall erected in the century XVI<\/strong> are some of the main points of interest of Harness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n
