You were right about Sicily!

I am glad you find the questions exciting! I think Manolis designs them in a way that it is impossible to find the answer :)

Pyrrhus’ father in law was Ptolemy I, was it not? Should we include Sicily in our account? I am sorry about my ignorance. Just found the questions exciting.

I still find the hair style odd, as well as the gentle turn of the head. Is it not etruscan, for sure?
