James gave you a complete description of the material.
When talking of an armour, bear in mind that we are talking about a detached helmet and two parts of the body protection, one for the back and one for the chest. Ancient Greek also wore greaves, brassards which made them move with difficulty but they were the only means of protection. They were also made of bronze.

It's bronze for helmet, body armor, and weapons. They used wooden shields wrapped in leather then bronze plate or they laquered wooden shields to harden it. Steel wasn't fully developed yet throught Europe until their medieval times. However, during Hellenistic times, iron working and iron smelting was fully developed in India, Sri Lanka, and China who produced high quality steel.
