greycat Posted November 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 (edited) Cavalryman of the prodromoi of the early 33os. In the centre is an infantryman in camp dress. Around his arm is wrapped the ephaptis, the military 'wrap..around'cloak, which could be wrapped around the arm to form a makeshift shield. On the right is a Foot Companion in hunting dress; he is an officer or a senior soldier. Edited November 14, 2013 by greycat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
