Re: Lw-emblem Stab./K.Gr. z.b.V. 9

Hello Byron,
Perhaps nothing to do with... But;
1/ Rodi is a language spoken by Fentar people in Norway.
2/ Rodi is Italian form for Rodos (=Rose). Since there is a Crusade cross above the reindeer we can think there is something to do with Malta Order, Teutonic Knight order and/or Hospitalier order. In that context (crusade) I can understand, too, why they choose an Italian name.
3/ I wrote <reindeer> but is it? We have to look if the reindeer has something to do with some past gods honoured in Rhodes. Diana? Don't know... Let's see. I'm looking for.

Cheers,
Franck.
