New sword find in Jerusalem, image?
#15
Quote:I do not say the sword could only have been lost by a Roman. I say the only person losing the sword could have been a Jewish combattant since the Romans did not fight in the tunnels according to the sources who highly likely would have told us so if they did since it is peculiar enough to mention.

Perhaps Roman's "normally" did not fight in sewers, but what do you make of Dura Europos? Certainly several Romans fought (and died) in the counter-mine.
