Hello to all of you!
Has anyone Information about Lions on Greek shields?
While I am slowly planning a panoply, I am searching for such a Shield device and a Polis where it was used.
The Lion seems attractive to me because the blazon of arms of my family out of the middle ages (I know, there is no equality to ancient Greece) shows a walking lion with a white mane on red ground color.
I would be glad to find a polis and a shield device with an equivalent figure.
Kind regards
Strategos
