Thanx Paul I knew I could count on you :wink: I hope see you in the DVD Program or TV Cable
Paul or any:
Do you know what else in Philips late classic period, would have as armor protection?... I meant not Hellenistic armor period his phalanx would used I guess... I had seen some linothoraxes on the Tomb frescoes, but seems hellenistc, not late classic or Philips' time?...
As things are going too slow for me, I may try another kind of armour for my Philips' impression, I dont want to do this, perhaps not for now to have his golden iron cuirass, I couldn't find more infarmation for an accurate reconstruction, but some ideas, I wouldn't want to spend a bounch of money in something that I'm not sure its accurate! (sad). At least I try it to do by myself, but not time for it....
I think of the Iron lammelar of the Etruscan Todi statue perhaps was bronze?, also Farrel appears with it on Oliver's Alexander movie, or perhaps some armour close to his period, not sure of what? see: http://astro.temple.edu/~tlclark/lorica ... eather.htm
Philips' Iron cuirass can wait later not the event, with more research, I will have it, its' my oath!.
I'm desperate to have my clues don, & to show up at the event.... I have to do fast, 7 monts pass faster...
Thank you for encourage me to go like that anyway... Beard!
Thanx
Remarks by Philip on the Athenian Leaders:
Philip said that the Athenians were like the bust of Hermes: all mouth and dick.
