Perhaps you're right. Isn't it strange that there are no significant mentions about those particular shields? And no finds as well,given they were prescious metals(this is not so strange actually)...Could we estimate the value of all those shields in talents? The wealth of Asia is an impressive term. We all know that the wealth is never so much as to spare it in thousants of foot soldiers. Persian kings never equiped massively their bodyguards like that,and think that the jewelry and richness of Persian soldiers was famous to Greeks. I don't know,perhaps the wealth of Asia was really above any imagination :lol:
