Issues to be mediated

• That ths quotation from Robert S. P. Beekes: "When this bipennis [‘double axe’], property of ‘Zeus Bakchos’, carried as symbol of sacred power by Lydian kings, is encountered again as the symbol of the royal authority of the Etruscan kings, particularly of the supreme king of the federation of cities, this may be considered an important indication of the Asia Minor origin of the entire underlying ideology, and of the ceremony of investiture in which the bipennis played a part.’

These conclusions are of primary importance, as they concern a deeprooted complex of religious views that cannot have been taken over from elsewhere. (p.31-32)" does not mean that Charun carried a labrys rather than a hammer.

• That he does not have a right to delete an entirely bibliography of sources because he doesn't like any of them.

Additional issues to be mediated

• That personal attacks and uncivil discussion have no place on Wikipedia

• Additional issue 2
