Quote:Other possibilitsio for the inscription are :
VASILEOS SOMATOFYLAX
VASILEOS DORON EIMI
YPO VASILEOS DEDOMENI
Kind regards
Dear Stefanos, if you study carefuly, you see that the shield fragment started with the letter ( Ypsilon ) then continue the word Basileos... So my impresion is, that the letter "Ypsilon" its the end of a personal name.
When I try to match you frases, it doesn't match witn the ypsilon...
Do you have other posibilities words ending with ypsilon?
====================================================
BTW: Perhaps you refered to more variety of this shields not thisone.
Cheers Stefane.

Philip said that the Athenians were like the bust of Hermes: all mouth and dick.
