Hi all,
something just occured to me.
We, as a re-enactment community, must have recreated tons of stuff ranging from shoes and tunics to full blown artillery. All this has been tried and tested and studied.
Yet I noticed that one of the easiest things among all this to recreate must be the spongia toilet stick.
We know what it looked liked better than we do of most pieces of equipment.
We have a pretty good idea on how it might have been used.
But has anyone ever actually tested one....
Any experts out there on this subject ??
Cheers,
Cordvs/Wim.
