Chevron (insignia)
A chevron (also spelled cheveron, especially in older documents) is a V-shaped pattern. The word is usually used in reference to a kind of fret in architecture, or to a badge or insignia used in military or police uniforms to indicate rank or length of service, or in heraldry and the designs of flags (see flag terminology). The symbol is also used on highway signs to guide drivers around curves.
==Ancient history==
The chevron occurs in early art including designs on pottery and rock carvings. Examples can be found approximately 1800 BC in archaeological recovery of pottery designs from the palace of Knossos on Crete in the modern day country of Greece.〔C.Michael Hogan (2007) (''Knossos Fieldnotes'' The Modern Antiquarian )〕
Sparta (Lacedaemonia (Λακεδαιμονία)) used a capital lambda (Λ) on their shields.
