Does anyone knows how would the french stradioti be dressed and equipped by this time (during the Wars of Religion)? It seems that they were present at the battle of Dreux in 1562, and there are references to the French recruiting greek cavalry even up to the 1580s/90s

The following link (if I did this correctly) should take you to a page which contains Funken's painting of a Stradiot in the French War of Religion.
