CAVE GRYPPEN Beware of the ... (Krupp clan) Explanation: Gryppen. I seriously doubt that this is a "Y", it's a "U" since the Latin alphabet didn't contain this letter. The upsilon is a Greek invention. Besides: Krupp - Grupp(en) makes sense, right? |

CAVE GRYPPEN Beware of the griffin/gryphon Explanation: This is some kind of a forum on genealogy, so not really very reliable, but based on your description of the figure, it is a griffin, so it could be possible. Anyway, the site is: If you can help, do you know where i can get that "cave gryppen" symbol of the red gryphon on the spine of the book, without the sleeve, the black spine? http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?p=434923 grif·fin also grif·fon or gryph·on (grĭf'ən) n. A fabulous beast with the head and wings of an eagle and the body of a lion. http://www.answers.com/topic/griffin?method=6 |
