I know Stefane. First of all,the first vase you posted is very interesting.
I had in mind those images of horsemen with (boeotian) shields on their back. We don't usually see them fighting that ways though. And I wonder,were they actually fighting on horseback dressed like hoplites.
But all those bronze statuettes and all grave stelai I can remember don't show them with shields. Can you post any pics of the Heraion you refered to?
