QUOTE: “But any look on germanic weaponry around 1AD will show that large La Tene style swords was still in use by some germanic warriors. Since these swords demands an open formation if any to effective…“<br>
<br>
If SOME germanic warriors used long swords doesn’t necessarily mean that it was weapon of majority. In fact it was the other way round. By the way it could be some sort of cavalry spatha as well.<br>

QUOTE: “…most of the action a germanic warrior would see would be in raids on other tribes. In such raids they would rarely be time to set up formations.â€ÂÂ
