Single Combat during the Trojan War
#44
Quote:As taken from Osprey's Mycenaean Citadel's 1350-1200 B.C.

Chronology of major Bronze Age events
All of which is wrong if the chronology is revised. This is a pretty bad book that rehashes a lot of outdated work. Grguric's book is a little better but I listed a page of problems when I reviewed it.

Quote:Also from the same book a depiction of the Lion's Hunt Dagger. Notice the Shield furthest to front being similar in the description of Ajax's Shield.
No it doesn't. There is not a single shield described by Homer that resembles anything on the Lion Hunt dagger. Never in the entire book is the shape of Aias' shield described.
