Something else...
That probably goes to Stefanos, but I guess anyone that knows, can answer the follow:
I DO know, about the Spartan "Dokana"... "banner-flag".
That I'M NOT really sure is,... did ALL Hellenic factions used something like a war-banner, flag???
We know about the Athenian "Paladion" (an Athenian banner, USED IN FESTIVALS!), but... what about WAR-BANNERS???
And if yes, can someone write a sort-of-list of "which-kind" of banner to which faction?
(Does the Argives used a white-painted shield on a pole?... Sort answers in questions like this, I'm kindly asking...)
Regards.
