Thinking about a certain quote by a Spartan.....about their short swords being long enough to reach the hearts of their enemies.
The Spartans had both long hair and beards, if the enemy was close enough to try and grab either.....the sword would reach their heart easily... :wink:
Would the popularity of clean shaven chins have developed with the use of helmets that were tied under the chin.......?

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
