Lampedo, she didn’t act much yet, so what to say…One of the things that pushed me to write this comic was read about current researches on who could’ve been the amazons or at least inspired their myth. Nowadays there’s people trying to link them to equestrian groups, mostly living above the Black and Baltic Seas, but there’s all those classical accounts talking about the amazons around Anatolia, the cities of Pontus, Themyscira and so on, besides many other more random or mythical places. I chose to don’t define it, make such historical claim isn’t relevant to this story, consequently they wouldn’t be an homogeneous group, all fair-haired as the old descriptions of people like the Scythians or resembling the classical greek depictions or as Anatolian groups, etc. So, I’m trying to balance this when drawing them, there’s also Asteria’s exception, which I’ll talk about at her post. Well, for now they’re still very self contained in their own little world, other peoples and cultures will come into the picture later in a clearer form.(I always write too much, right?… also never know in what order I should post them…) -- source link
