Mystery Stamps - Help Me to Identify Them!

Sometimes I find something in my collection that is a mystery to me. Maybe it's an inscription I missed in the hardcopy or online stamp identifiers that I use. Perhaps it's a revenue or a bogus stamp that isn't mentioned in my catalogs. Whatever it is, I'd like to find out more. So, if you know something about one of the items listed, please E-mail Me with what you know. Once identified, I'll leave the image and details online for other collectors to learn from.

Item 0001 Identified: Crete Revolutionary Issues of 1905. Greek Lettering; Inscriptions are: 10 ΛEΡTA, ΠΡOΣΩPINH KYBEPNHΣIΣ, and KPHTH ΔOYΛH.

Item 0002 Light green stamp inscribed Takssha Marka in Cyrillic. Is it a revenue stamp? From what country?

Item 0003 Stamp inscribed in Arabic, picturing a wounded soldier being carried off a battlefield on a litter.
