Quote:As for the Iron T&Y corselets. I am just repeating what Dr. Miller Collett has told me. She told me it was far from unique and 'several' have now been found. As I say, next time I speak to her I will find out more for you all. Are you all aware of the clothing and feather fragments found in Vergina? And the gold embroidered purple material the bones were wrapped in?
I don't mean to press, but did she say specifically that they were T&Y in form, or just iron cuirasses? Because I know of several contemporary iron cuirasses, as I wrote before, but they are either too badly preserved to discern their form, or they are muscled cuirasses.

He had with him the selfsame rifle you see with him now, all mounted in german silver and the name that he\'d give it set with silver wire under the checkpiece in latin: Et In Arcadia Ego. Common enough for a man to name his gun. His is the first and only ever I seen with an inscription from the classics. - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian
