visual sources

This was the first set of primary sources that I actually liked the visual sources a bit better than the written documents.  Not that the documents did not give me a better understanding of what the people in these empires were thinking and doing at the time, I just really enjoyed looking at the images.  My favorite one is the last one.  I believe it is on page 162.  It just has so many thins to look at and think about on the breastplate.  What could all those symbols possibly mean?  Could he have thought he was protected by the gods?  I am not sure exactly, but I think it is pretty cool.
