A corinthian minus nose guard an with scalops. A most unusual piece.
Nice info on shields Ralf.
Shield bosess of Geometric period have been found in Delphoi and I am told there is one on display in the Desfina Museum.
Desfina is near ancient Doric Lilea and this is the reason many associate embossed shields with the Doreans.
Kind regards
