Herculaneum soldier

[Tarbicus]

The archeology that did the bony(osseous) study of the soldier was the north American "Sara Bisel", she(it) suggested the idea of the wound for knife in the high part of the femur.

Here's a Bryn Mawr review of the report:

And available at Oxbow for the cost of a copy of Robinson :evil:

But as luck would have it, make sure you click on the ones by Sara Bisel, not the Mysteries:

Soon the images, only a belt appears in the soldier, with three big square plates and two circular frogs. A cordial greeting, and pardon for my Englishman.

Thanks very much, and Englishmen often need a pardon :wink: Your english is fine, thanks.
