Great to see the plates depicted in Montvert book 'Achaemenid army'. I have been searching for these plates a very long time. Hope gie will find the time to post the other plates. Especially the plate depicting a Persian heavy cavalryman equiped with a persian armoured saddle will be a great addition to my collection. Greetings Cataphract I am out of town in my summer holidays and I dont`t have access to my computer! I am sorry i can not post them faster! I will be home on the last weekend from this month. I will try to look if i have a copy in my email, In this case i will post them before this date! Someone wants other plates? Thanks Gie. Plates of cataphract warriors (no Ospreys, I know there are several great Russian books which aren't available in Europe) would be great. Maybe you have some of these books. Many thanks Greetings Cataphract

I only wanted to mention to temujin who posted pictures of Bulgarian warriors that I do not know who is his source but I am sure that if he google Bulgarian warriors will find more truthful info.I do not say that all the pictures about the bolgars are not true but some of them.The sighn of Dulo is not 100% sure it is it, and as a matter of fact if you ask me we must wait for the old bulgarian historians to die before we know the truth about ourselves , bulgarians.Our history was too much modified during the Soviet time

Mongols call Bulgars as "Bolgar" it sounds like "Bool gar"="Servent army". I used to think so. After watching this movie : www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvNmaPuh3A0(In the beginning of movie, it says "Balgari" or "Bulgari" means "Risen" or "Rebel" in ancient Turkic lang...) I thought if we call Bulgars as "Bulgar" not "Bolgar" then word "Bulgar" means "Separated bone" this is the same meaning as "Risen"="Separated".

Yes, the word Bulgha- exists both in Turkic and Mongolian with the meaning "to become chaotic, rebel".
