Default Re: What does Arcoscephale mean?

I'd think Arcoscephale's beginning meant something like an arch (or bridge), and cephale might mean head or leader.
Actually, it might be a corruption of Argos, a Greek city on the southeast coast of the Peloponnese, to the northeast of Sparta. According to Wikipedia the word Argos is pre-Hellenic and means something like 'shine' or 'brightly shining'.

So Arcoscephale might mean 'shining heads'. Whether this refers to their bright helmets or their bald heads is for the devs to figure out.
