Quote:Wow, terrific picture, thanks for sharing Gioi. Never been to Korfu and to be honest, I've never expected to see Makedonian Armour therehock:
Well, it's not Macedonian, it's Epirote armour, and it's not actually from Corfu, but Prodromi on the mainland. Still, I'm curious how the photographer managed to snap that picture. The display is right beside the front desk and there are big signs everywhere saying that no photography was allowed because all the artefacts were unpublished (which isn't true).

He had with him the selfsame rifle you see with him now, all mounted in german silver and the name that he\'d give it set with silver wire under the checkpiece in latin: Et In Arcadia Ego. Common enough for a man to name his gun. His is the first and only ever I seen with an inscription from the classics. - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian
