Quote:I thought about drawing the winged phallus known from wall graffiti, but that might be too obvious to the public. Some arcane script would suffice.
Gaius Decius Aquilius
(Ralph Izard)
One of our guys (Demetrius in Comitatus) has that winged phallus on the inside of his shield. I have some Mithraic emblems, others have fancy paintings from the Notitia Dig or Dura. I am very much into a 'field' look and when I make my next shield do intend to scrawl something nasty on the inside. If only I'd picked up that book Pompeii Erotica I saw at Herculaneum, full of outrageous Latin!
