Wearing a distinctive costume, this Etruscan statuette depicts an archer holding a now-missing bow in his raised right hand. The tight-fitting shirt with a zigzag pattern, the leggings with a diamond pattern, the pointed Phrygian cap, and the pointy-toed boots, as well as the large bow-case held under the left arm, all correspond to the standard depiction of Scythian archers. Associated with the hero Achilles, these warriors were common in Greek art of this period. The dappled deerskin draped over his shoulders implies another interpretation, however. The figure is actually meant to be a hunter or an Etruscan deity connected with hunting.
The form of the statuette's base suggests that this figure once decorated the top of a candelabrum.

Imported Attic Black figure plate showing a Scythian archer blowing a trumpet by Psiax. Found in an Etruscan tomb in Vulci, Italy. Archaic, Athens, Greece, 520 BC - 500 BC, British Museum, London, England. Copyright 2017, James A. Glazier. The poor lighting, awkward angles and highly reflective and dirty glass at the British Museum make seeing anything, let alone photographing it a challenge. Ironic that many Italian museums now have much better display conditions than the British Museum.
South-east corner of Second orange granite deerstone of Group of three deerstones (Bronze Age) excavated from Square tombs where they were reused (700 BC - 400 BC) and reerected by Jerome Magail. In the background a rock-covered mountain and a very large square khirig sur with many stone circles for horse head offerings (kurgan) (1100 BC - 500 BC). The plain belt is almost completely hidden by the reconstructed ground line. On the east face, a small reindeer, flying up and to the left, leds folded, three large reindeer flying up and to the left, legs folded, a disk mirror between the top two reindeer on the left, a sun, a row of dots. On the narrow south face, an axe to the left, to the right a lariat or lasso (?), above, a sword, four reindeer flying up and to the left, with heads to the left, legs extended to the right so they look upside-down, a row of dots. On the badly eroded west face, five reindeer flying to to upper right, a sun. The badly eroded, narrow north face shows a dagger, hilt to the right, a shield or sporran, a quiver or bowcase, four reindeer flying vertically up, with heads to the left, legs folded to the right, an axe on the lefts side amid the reindeer antlers. On the top angled face, a row of dots. They are located far up a wide valley north of the Tamir. The valley is currently dry in the summer, but has an arroyo with water in the winter. In the moister Bronze-Age climate, the stream may have flowed year round, so the deerstones may have been associated with running water. The locale hosts a modern winter camp. As Julia Clark has pointed out, settlement patterns are remarkably unchanged from the Bronze Age, so the site was likely a winter camp, if not occupied year round, in the Bronze Age. The deerstones are associated with several large and small Khirig Sur (Kurgans). The streambed has copious quantities of beautifully smoothed grey granite boulders perfect for deerstones. Many are so symmetrical one would think they had been hand-shaped. A perfect site for a hypothetical "Deerstone Factory". Tsatsyn Denj Deerstones North of the Tamir River in association with many later monuments. Many of the deerstones were reused as walls in Square tombs. Recent excavations by the Monaco mission under the direction of Jerome Magail have reerected many of these and we were able to see 43 in the area (two have been moved to Ulaan Baatar) Originally, the valley must have been lined with hundreds of deerstones with several on every point in the bluffs. While the exact meaning of deerstones is still debated, they are clearly totemic markers with shamanic content, symbolizing simultaneously a stylized human form, the sacred cosmos and the fertilizing phallus. The Forest God in the Japanese Manga film "Princess Mononoke" give a good idea of what the deerstone represent. They are not grave markers, though some are associated with (later?/contemporary?) Khirig Sur (kurgan) burials. Almost all have highly stylized bird-reindeer with open beaks and baroque horns, flying between earth and heaven, which also represent tattoos or embroidery, a belt which also represents the earth, suns that double as ears, a line of dots that demarcate both the heavens and the glans of the penis, and an enigmatic sporran--which may be a shield or shamanic cloak or bag. Weapons (sword, bow--sometimes drawn, with arrow--, quiver or bow case, axe, dagger) are also common. Most deerstones were erected on South-facing bluffs overlooking rivers, as here over the Tamir, where they would be both visible and in position to influence the fertility of the valley. Today, each family has its deerstone or group of deerstones, which they usually protect (though one family was using theirs as the roof of a dog house). Bronze Age (recently dates have crept earlier to roughly 1300 BC - 700 BC). When I first came to Mongolia in the 1990s, deerstones were considered rare. That situation has since changed radically. The later builders of Square Tombs loved deerstones for their sacred power and would drag them a long way to use as the walls and covers of their tombs (as many as 11 deerstones per tomb). As a result, now that Square Tombs are being excavated regularly, more than 700 deerstones are known. I'd estimate at least 2000 deertsones survive in Mongolia in Square Tombs. This large number indicates that they may hae been clan specific and that they were erected at fairly frequent intervals (e.g. after an eclipse or on the death of a ruler). Tsatsyn Denj, Tamir River Valley, Battsengel Sum, Arkhangai Aimag, Mongolia.

Crete, Phaistos AR Stater. Mid 4th century BC. Herakles standing in fighting attitude to right, wearing Nemean lion skin, seizing with his left hand one of the heads of the Lernean Hydra, and with his right hand preparing to strike with; bow and bowcase in left field / Bull standing to left. Svoronos 66, pl. XXIV, 23 (these dies); Le Rider pl. XXIII, 11 (same dies); BMFA Suppl. 125 (same dies). 11.41g, 27mm, 4h. Near Extremely Fine. Extremely Rare, only two examples recorded by Le Rider. From the Eckenheimer Collection.
The obverse of this coin depicts the second of Herakles’ Twelve Labours set by Eurystheos, the agent of Hera. He was tasked with slaying the ancient serpent-like monster that resided in the lake of Lerna in the Argolid, which guarded an underwater entrance to the underworld. Upon cutting off each of the Hydra’s heads however, Herakles found that two more would grow back in its place, an expression of the hopelessness of such a struggle for any but the hero. Realizing that he could not defeat the Hydra in this way, Herakles called on his nephew Iolaos for help. Iolaos then came upon the idea (possibly inspired by Athena) of using a firebrand to cauterize the stumps after each decapitation. When Hera saw that Herakles was gaining the upper hand she sent a large crab to distract the hero, but Herakles crushed it underfoot. He cut off the last and strongest of the Hydra’s heads with a golden sword given to him by Athena, and so completed his task. Hera, upset that Herakles had slain the beast she raised to kill him, placed it in the vault of the heavens as the constellation Hydra, and she turned the crab into the constellation Cancer. The encounter with the Lernean Hydra is not only well attested in epic, but is also the subject of some of the earliest securely identifiable Herakles scenes in Greek art. On two Boiotian fibulae of c. 750-700 BC (BM 3025, Philadelphia 75-35-1), the hydra is attacked by Herakles, at whose feet is the crab sent by Hera. This particular form of the scene would later be replicated on the coins of Phaistos (cf. Svoronos 60, pl. XXIV, 20), even including the crab. The present example is the earliest in the Herakles-Hydra series at Phaistos, and consequently is more archaistic in style. It has been extensively argued that the later designs of Phaistos copy a now lost masterpiece of sculpture or painting, perhaps even a statue group by the great sculptor Lysippos (see Lehmann, ‘Statues on Coins’, New York 1946; see also Lacroix, ‘Les Reproductions de Statues sur les Monnaies Grecques’, Liege 1949; see also Lattimore, ‘Lysippian Sculpture on Greek Coins’, California Studies in Classical Antiquity Vol. 5 1972). The present type however most likely draws its inspiration from a locally significant vase or wall painting, given that the composition is pictorial in nature, showing Herakles’ bow and quiver behind him in the field. Though the particular source of inspiration for this type is not known, clear parallels can be seen in surviving Greek art of the late Archaic and early Classical periods, notably on an Attic black figure Lekythos now in the Louvre (CA598) which depicts Herakles and the Hydra in a similar combat pose.

Little is known about Sariakos, other than that he was a king who struck coins and was mentioned in an inscription found in Bulgaria. He has been given a variety of dates, all basically in the 2nd century BC, that of c.168-150 being the most precise, but others place him toward the end of the century. In any case his silver coinage is of great rarity, and this is probably the finest example known.

A feud among Indians of the old frontier.
After serving in the Army during World War I, Jerome Rozen (1895-1987) attended the Art Institute of Chicago and graduated in 1921. By 1923, he was working as an art instructor and soon moved to New York City to pursue a career in commercial art.
Jerome’s first published assignments were interior pen and ink story illustrations for Fawcett’s “Triple-X Magazine.” He created covers for pulp magazines “Battle Stories,” “Complete Stories,” “Over the Top,” “The Popular Magazine,” “War Birds,” and “Western Story.” In 1931, he painted the earliest original pulp magazine covers for “The Shadow,” but in 1932 his twin brother George took over when Jerome shifted focus to advertising and slick magazine illustration. Jerome produced artwork for companies like Schlitz Beer and Shell Oil well into the later years of his career. [Source: PulpArtists.com]

“James Willard Schultz, who wrote our new serial commencing on the next page, is a white man who has spent his life among our Western Indians and is a member of three Blackfeet tribes. He is without question the authoritative and entertaining author of Indian stories in America.” – Editor’s Note
James Willard Schultz was known for his autobiographical narratives and stories related to the Blackfeet Indians. His works often revolve around the history, culture and customs of the Blackfeet tribe (the region around Glacier National Park), and include themes of adventure, cultural encounters, and the rich storytelling tradition of the Blackfeet people.

After accidentally breaking my bow, my teacher arranged for me to take home a selection of bows - these are those.
After much practice, I've whittled (hahaha, cough) the competition down to two. And the thought is this - pretty bow which isn't all that, or average-looking bow which plays in a rather lovely manner. I wonder...
Three otter skins serve as the foundation for this ornamented bow case and quiver. To honor the animals, the artist retained the natural shapes of the skins and made the tails the beaded tabs. Although makers throughout the Plains and Plateau produced many types of these objects, none are as elaborate as those created by the Nez Perce or by their Crow allies. A man likely wore this set for dress and parade occasions.
