The Illyrians (Ancient Greek: Ἰλλυριοί, Illyrioi; Latin: Illyrii) were a group of Indo-European-speaking people who inhabited the western Balkan Peninsula in ancient times. They constituted one of the three main Paleo-Balkan populations, along with the Thracians and Greeks.(Wikipedia)
(Illyrian tribes in the 1st–2nd centuries AD.)
Alexander was followed in Asia by 7000 Odryssians, Trivallians and Illyrians who were almost all peltasts like the figures I present.
They can also be used in the Pyrrhic army, the early successor armies and the Antigonid (Later Macedonian) army.
For the symbols on the shields I used the Illyrian circles, the Macedonian sun as it has been formulated as a symbol of common cultural heritage, as well as symbols of both Greek and Italian style.
