I'm currently looking for something similiar to this depiction on the Artemis wall hanging found in Egypt. It shows Actaeon clad in chlamys, tunic, scale armour and pants. The armour is ununsual for heroic hunters like Actaeon. The wall hanging is dated as 4-6th century. Is he wearing military equipment or are there also hunting depictions from the same timeframe with armoured hunters? Is someone able to make a better age determination, because of the the equipment? Those disks on his knees are unusual too. I've never seen orbiculi on pants.
