With the opportunity to come out of retirement shortly presenting itself i have been reading this Ancient Combat Sports thread with Enthusiasm.
I am hugely impressed with Medusas scholarship.
I also wish to share with all my interpretation of the famous gladitorix relief.
I have long thought that as a cocession to glamour that that pair are depicted wearing what are normally called/ used as cavalry "sports" helms
and this is perhaps why the the detail of the hairstyle is still extant.
