Cetainly, studying Roman proto-history (before 250 BC or so, compared to before 500 BC or so in Greece) is always tricky since we have several sources which seem detailed but were working largely from patriotic legend and family tradition (and from other historians who had used the same sources and embroidered them with their particular style of rhetoric). One has to be very careful to throw out just enough to leave to any scraps of historical truth. But if numbers from different sources in different places make a very consistent pattern, that would be evidence for their authenticity- especially if the same system continues into the historic period.

I'll be interested to see your book, Steven. It sounds like exciting work.

I have not checked this forum frequently since 2013, but I hope that these old posts have some value. I now have a blog on books, swords, and the curious things humans do with them.
