Hi, first time reply. My name is Mick and although not a reenactor I find your site a great source for people like myself who have an interest in the steppe horse cultures. I can't recall the source but I read that a lot of the Iazyges that were sent to Britain were already prisoners of war so they would have lost their horses and weapons when captured so maybe they were kitted out in Roman gear when sent. Can't remember the source but I will try to find it.
