Ok Robert
That is what is found in "original" texts and the "wrong" translation of it, but still there are Germanic Angos and Pila with a round socket known.
And used by Troops in Roman Service.
But then again there are also some very slender spearheads like one published in Armed Batavians.
Or even the ones known from Thorsberg and Illerup-Adal.
Which are slender and long enough to go trough the eyeslits of a helmet with a face mask, next to penetrating some types of armour.
