Splendid reconstruction of the "Attic" helmet.
Although the sword should be shorter at that period. Kind regards

Jason,
I interpret as "thracic" the helemet with the top upwards pointing knot and the "scaloped"/ "bearded(sometimes)" cheek pieces. The helmet with the "peudo-front guard" as shown here it a variation of the "Attik" helemt in my opinion. Kind regards

I'll third it. This is the Greek area of the Forum, after all! - and what did the Romans ever do for us? :lol:

Reg, the Greeks gave you wine. (After the Egyptians gave you the date-based stuff, remember? No, you probably don't.) :?
EDUCATION?! To the JEWS? hock: I'm not sure aqueducts were new to the Jews, either. Perhaps someone can enlighten me. :roll: You don't want to put too much reliance on what the pythons say - after all, they're bound to speak with forked tongues! :twisted: "They make a wasteland, and call it peace." - That's the Romans, according to one Roman.

Quote:You asked for it! RE: Sanitation House toilets are known in the Greek world since the Late Bronze Age. Evidence comes from Akrotiri on Thera and Knossos on Crete to mention only two. RE: Medicine Well, can you think of any famous Roman doctors before Hippocrates or Galen? RE: Education Schooling (at least for the wealthier kids) was a norm in Classical Athens. At about the age of seven, a boy would be placed in charge of a paidagogos who taught him good manners and made sure that he attended his classes. Classes took place in the houses of the teachers and the boys were taught reading, writing, arithmetic and after a couple of years music as well. RE: Public order In 5th century Athens, there was a modest "police form" the so-called "Scythian Archers" (who may or may not have been from Scythia and who may or may not have been archers). They were responsible for keeping order in public gatherings (e.g. the Council and the Assembly) and perhaps were authorized to use force against citizens under certain circumstances. The law was enforced by a group of magistrates known as the Eleven. They were responsible for arresting criminals and running the state prisons. For more info take a look at: 1)Baughman, E. 2003. “Scythian Archers,â€
