Grave Stele of a Boeotian horseman from Thespiae

 Salvete Omnes,

Following the comment by Mehmet about the Thespiae stele under my 2013 posting on the Ancient Greek Cavalryman I am posting the image of that Thespiae horseman (from University of Michigan Library Digital Collection) - 

the article about the Athenian cavalry in Sicily is made available on Academia by its author, Annalies Koolen.(or at Research Gate). 

Obol from Thespiae

Article on the Boeotian monuments of the fallen warriors - from Academia
& my old drawing from a sketchbook from 2013
