Thank you.... :wink:
Those last two sandals look extremely modern, or the other way around... :roll:
The thick shaped soles with black dots....what do the dots represent, what are they made of do you think...?

You looking MUCH BETTER from the other guys I've seen in panoply, my lady!
It's the... natural long hair! MUCH MORE realistic, indeed!
(The only "problem" with my fellows British that making these festivals, is that they are "light-skin" people; not too tan... But, on the other hand, I am quite tan,... but I DON'T OWN a great panoply like this!)
Regards my lady.

I found this looking at something for another thread....
from [url:3mjnh6pa]http://www.sikyon.com/Sparta/Art/sparta_peg02.html[/url]
Described as Bellerophon and Pegasos killing the Chimaera.
Laconian cup, 570 - 565 BC.

Greetings my lady...
Yes indeed; it representing "Bellerophon with Pegasus, killing Chimera". You can easily see Pegasus in the left, Chimera Beast in the righ and I guess that fellow is Bellerophon...
The technique of this art, is quite old; definitely not Classic Age.
The shape, anatomy & details of the body/face of the human figure, are not too perfect. In fact, there isn't anatomy; the figure is more like a caricature, like most of the artwork of "Bronze's Age" or later...
The same comment, for the two Mythical Beasts.
ALSO, the color-combination telling us that this is a no-Classic Times art...
Regards my lady...
...
(Edited:
I've seen the link you posted, my lady. VERY-VERY strange saying that this is from 6th-5th century BC! Even for the Lacedaimonian "not-so-high-class-artwork", this "Krater" CAN'T be after - at least - the 7th century BC...
But, I'm just a amateur researcher and an illustrator! I maybe wrong...)

It looks early 6th century to me. This could be an example of Lakedaemonian winter footwear, indeed it may not have been Spartan at all, and one of the other Laconians.
Bella has a shaved moustache in it, too.

That's right, I agree... It's MUST be not a 5th century BC artwork...

You can just make out a belt on Bellerophon. Would it be anything like this:
[url:12gi7shv]http://www.artemisgallery.com/items/553962/enlargement553962artemis.html[/url]
The Artemis Gallery auction site dates it to the 4th c but I think it is much earlier. Any suggestions?

That seems to be an Italian belt, Samnite or Campanian

Thanks Rob,
I have seen earlier examples of Phrygian and Ionic Greek belts ages ago with similar and different buckle arrangements but they were dated to the 8th C.

Yes it was of similar gear that the term EVZONOS (well belted) was used for the light troops.

Does anyone knows, on which marble from the British Museum does this shoe comes from?
Thanks!
