Quote:It should be pointed out that it is more likely the shields in the Lyson and Kallikles tomb are quite possibly cavalry shields.
Except for the similar shield in Pergamon and the exceedingly similar shields carried by infantry on the Paullus monument (and armour in as much as can be made out).
