I wish to find any ancient scources and/or imagery (paintings,carvings, etc.) of Greek or Roman unarmed martial arts. This is my main field of study as a Martial Artist and feel I could contribute best to RAT in this way. I hope to get others that practice Martial Arts as well as that makes for "Enlightening" conversations. To date I have found little original sources of Pankration; and except for what is found on the Internet and in modern books know very little excepting that supposedly either Theseus or Heracles developed Pankration and it was an Original Olympic sport.
Let the Games Begin!!!

If any moderators could move this thread to "Greek Military History & Archeology" I would be grateful. Thanks!
