a) The “Battle in the Glen,” impression on an early Mycenaean gold signet ring from Shaft Grave IV, Grave Circle A, Mycenae, Peloponnesos. CMS I 16. (Site excavated in 1876, so this would not have been known about by modern society until after that year and the grave site itself would go back to 16th century BC)

b) Illustration based on an Impression from the signet ring.

 

 

 

c) Occator Crater (PIA20350?)

 

d) An attempt to draw out in red the areas that might have inspired the Mycenaean ring maker to create the image on the ring

 

 

 

 

e) One might jump in and look for a similarity between the area that I label as the "Head and shoulders" like form in Cerealia Facula and the seated man

 

 

 

 

c.ii) But more in line with where one thing as layed out in the landscape matches up with the other, on April 9th 2023, I thought aboutt how these feint white shapes around the area where you can just about see outlines matching up with the shoulder area and the top of the head that might better suit the upper torso and head.
