The link about the Skythians was splendit Cristina.
The potery painting shows a Skythian archer with a hoplite of the Athenian epilektoi. Chance is that they are those who wacked Masistios in Platea.
The drawing shows Skythian archers supporting an Athenian of the Kropea dimos-modern Koropi, still make good retsina there. That eplains the CYLIX-cup on his shield. The other has the moons of Hecate on his shiled.
Paul must be smiling here because the guy is probably a Thespian.
Kiund regards
Stefanos
