Macedonian chaplet

A tomb in the Macedonian royal cemetery at Vergina (thought to be that of Philip II, but this is disputed) contained a golden chaplet in the shape of a garland of olive leaves. J S Ayer (talk) 13:05, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Split?

This page was created (10 years ago!) for some information wrongly placed at the Corolla dab page, so the current title was logical; but is not particularly apt. The content confuses a "chaplet" (which the OED states is a wreath or garland of flowers around the head) and a "corolla" (a circlet/coronet, or small crown). It also contains a number of errors, as the original editor seems to have misread the source used (Pliny).
I have corrected some of these, but suggest resolving the confusion by taking out the stuff on chaplets, and putting it on its own page.
I also propose moving this page to a less muddled title, like "Corolla (headgear)", unless there are any objections. Swanny18 (talk) 22:50, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

There's been no objection, so I've gone ahead and done it. The information on chaplets is now at Chaplet (headgear). I trust everyone is OK with that. Swanny18 (talk) 00:36, 16 December 2018 (UTC)

Horace?

I have removed the link to Horace's Odes, as it is irrelevant to this page; the poet referred to was Horace, not Pausias (who lived in Greece more than 300 years earlier) and the Glycera mentioned was someone else entirely. Swanny18 (talk) 22:58, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
