    Default Hoplite shieldsymbols

    Some of you may know that in the Greek ages. ( 500-400 BC) , uniforms for soldiers didn't exist.
    A soldier (especially the hoplites ) had their own symbol on their aspis (shields )
    The meaning of this thread is to make a list of all known shieldsymbols.

    Please , only post if you are 100 percent sure. (add a link if possible )
