From Copyright problems
 * I uploaded Image:RomanChariot.jpg, Image:ByzantineChariot.jpg, Image:RomanChariotBig.jpg, Image:ByzantineChariotBig.jpg, Image:Krak1.jpg, Image:Krak2.jpg, and also Image:GreekChariot.jpg, Image:GreekChariotBig.jpg, Image:PatroclusChariot.jpg, and Image:PatroclusChariotBig.jpg, which may be problems. Unfortunately I didn't think to make copies of the e-mail exchanges, but the Roman chariot picture is an ancient mosaic and the website's claim to copyright may be spurious. Same for the &quot;Patroclus&quot; and &quot;Greek&quot; ones. The Byzantine chariot pic and the pics of Krak des Chevalier are a bit more difficult - the people who took the photos said we could use them, and they seemed to understand the license, but if that's not good enough then I guess removing them is the only option.

 * A claim of fair use may be in order then - that is one reason why those were the only images I did not remove from the article. --mav 22:05, 3 May 2004 (UTC)


 * The site appears to be trying to present an accurate rendition of an out of copyright Roman period work, so I see no potential for a valid copyright on the public domain mural Image:RomanChariot.jpg and Image:RomanChariotBig.jpg. Same for Image:GreekChariot.jpg, Image:GreekChariotBig.jpg, Image:PatroclusChariot.jpg, and Image:PatroclusChariotBig.jpg. No creativity so no fair use - no copyright at all - public domain.

 * I'm happy to accept the statement from Adam that he requested permission, was granted permission by those who understood the license and that the images Image:ByzantineChariot.jpg Image:ByzantineChariotBig.jpg Image:Krak1.jpg Image:Krak2.jpg are therefore released under the GFDL.
