An ancient Greek hoplite, posed heroically, wears a polished bronze Spartan helmet with a horsehair crest, his expression obscured. A bronze cuirass, intricately molded, protects his muscular torso, while a dull linen chiton and sturdy greaves cover his lower body. He firmly grips a long, wooden dory spear with a sharp bronze leaf-shaped tip and butt-spike, its shaft smooth but textured by age. A circular bronze-covered aspis shield is held defensively. Shield has the symbol 'Λ' (Lambda)
