Well, maybe we cannot be too rigid on the pilleus because we've got only artistic portraits and not real remains, but the campagi are a very different thing. Has Mr Sumner examined the Deurne campagi?, they are distinctly asymmetrical. The Piazza Armerina depictions of the campagi are rather inconsistent but the old watercolours of the now nearly lost frescoes at Luxor show also asymmetrical campagi, like those at Leiden, with a slit open almost on the big toe's full length.<br>

BTW I don't like sterile polemics or annoying anybody, it is not my stile, but I cannot avoid thinking 'Does Mr Sumner think that he cannot be wrong? The rest of us are not so sure about that!'<br>

It\'s all an accident, an accident of hands. Mine, others, all without mind, from one extreme to another, but neither works nor will ever.
