Khaire,
I was looking at Arsdimicandi site after Comerus mentioned the videos and spotted this....Curiosita 'click on picture'
As far as I can work out from my limited Italian, they are saying it is 6-5th bce Greco Corinthian and depicts the predecessor of the Roman clibanari...complete with Kontus....and something about evidence for prototype lamellar, is that the fellow on the left???
He is obviously the cavalry commander with that transverse crest...
regards
Arthes

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
