dc.description.abstract	We ?find several subsystems of the root system of the exceptional Lie algebra E8 that are isomorphic to (direct products of) root systems of the classical Lie algebras An and/or Dn. By exploiting these subsystems we obtain six distinct ways to explicitly express the root system of E8.
