<p>[QUOTE="John Anthony, post: 1634901, member: 42773"]That's an interesting contrast. I've barely started researching ancient coinage, but I've been struck with how much modern designs are indebted to Roman paradigms. Going from Mars to Ngorieru might be a bit of a stretch though. Mars was the god of war, and a major player in the pantheon, whereas from what I've read, Ngorieru is merely the ringleader of a gang of mischievous sprites.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
