It really feels like this is a project that would be better served in a longer (read: book) format. Again, I think a de novo look at hoplites is valuable, but it needs to be done in a space that doesn't need all of the archaeology intermediated by secondary source footnotes.
Konijnendijk, Classical Greek Tactics (2018) isn't here but maybe it was too new when they wrote. I just realized though they don't have Schwartz, Reinstating the Hoplite (2009) which is striking omission.
