2nd Punic War - which sword?

[Tarbicus]

Thanks Jens, that's really helpful. I wonder if, even though they may not be gladii hispaniensis, the Romans could have used LaTene type swords as well as antennae swords? Given the amazing variety of blade shapes and styles in Miks' new book, I personally suspect (as do others that I know) there was a greater variety of arms and armour than we currently think of in the legions.
