Peltast Impression

[Giannis K. Hoplite]

Thanks Wolfgang for posting that!Yes this was the mosaic I was refering to!I had a low res picture and I thought it was a fresco.It's awesome! And funny... it writes the names of the animals and some of them are unknown...like "krokodilopardalis" and terrestrial crocodile etc.
On topic, it is indeed doubtful if they are thureophoroi,because they have kind of odd shield.Some of them are not oval and some of the oval ones have rims...But I don't think they are romans either.One of them has a phrygian helmet(the far left) and wears thracian boots.Thorakitai or Thureophoroi I don't know...but they don't wear mail si what kind of Thorakitai are they???
