it strikes me that there is a good example of each of the stackings in The Iliad. briefly (will probably explain more later)
Sp/So: Hector
So/Sx: Aeneas
Sx/Sp: Helen
So/Sp: Agamemnon
Sp/Sx: Odysseus
Sx/So: Achilles
interestingly enough...this works out to the Trojans being syn-flow and the Achaeans (Greeks) being contra-flow (if you say "but Helen is originally Greek, you can substitute Paris for the sake of this consistency). when you consider that the Greeks are the more glory-seeking aggressors, this makes a lot of sense
