The major obstacle is that I do not know of bibliograpfy in English. I have only the museum photos and the Greek literature on them.
These finds have been quoted in Osprey books so English bibliography is definetly available.
The "KLIRI" are stong evidnece of hoplite strength because they were granded to those who would serve as hoplites.
In modern states citizens can vote and have social securrity without military service. In ancient Greece you could vote only if you could fight.
The term klirotos for the men liable for service exists up to today.
Kind regards
