Hi, folks,

I don't know if someone mentioned this before, but there is an exhibit at 
the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston called Arms and Armor from the Ancient 
World (link to site above).  It's open through July 29, 2007 at the Audrey 
Jones Beck Building.

According to the website:  "This exhibition features a dazzling array of 
bronze helmets, a complete suit of hoplite armor, parade masks, weapons, a 
military diploma, and a marble relief depicting gladiator warfare. These are 
the beautiful yet fearsome arms which transformed soldiers into warriors of 
superhuman appearance, and forged the great empires of Greece and Rome more 
than 2,000 years ago."

In service,
Rhiannon
