Supporting a tent by furca poles might work to support the low side wall tent, as illustrated on Trajan's column, since no side wall support is required, but how to support the side walls of the high side wall tent, aka the Vindolanda tent, is a problem. The difficulty with the low side wall tent is that it isn't based upon much of any archeological evidence whereas there is much evidence for the high side wall variant.
