It is recommended to name the SVG file “Battle of Marathon Greek Double Envelopment.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva ) does not need the new image name parameter.

Quoted directly from an email querying copyright status of the map: " You are welcome to use the maps stated below for the purposes outlined in your document license. We do request the following credit line, “Maps Courtesy of the Department of History, United States Military Academy.” "

Their cartographer did not actually specify the exact license of the images they have produced, so I am assuming the strictest tag.

This is the second of two images, the first being Image:Battle of Marathon Initial Situation.png .
