@nrken19 I think the shield was identical to a crescent pelta, and that the reason that the cutout is facing downward in the original vase is because it’s hanging off of a “telamon” strap. The same strap that people interpreted as segmentata-style chest armor because of the stripes.
@TeeMemo396994@wasd_1444@QvisContraNos We have +30 Mycenaean male samples and he only posted six. Amazing to see balkaners that were killing each other over tiny plots of land a couple decades ago accuse me, not even from Greece, of “pride before logic” to push something that any geneticist can tell you isn’t true.
@madilyn44462@BostonFren_88 They aren’t Jews get over it. I’m going to remember this next time one of you clowns says “north Italians are basically German”
@wasd_1444@QvisContraNos This hinges on you pretending the Ionians didn’t exist and that we don’t have Iron Age samples which we do. When your ancestors tried to invade Italy under the ottoman banner, “terrone” slaughtered them at Malta and Otranto, and outclass you in every way. Nevermind the 90s lol
