Like in the title my question concern the real dimensions of the Late Roman spearheads, I have a lot of good illustrations of the various type of spears/heavy trowing spears used in the Late Roman Army, I'm particulary interested in the dimensions of the blade of weapons like Veruta or lancea, expecially compared to the more common Javelins types.
The balades of the Veruta and lancea seem quite long and large in the drawings, which were their real dimensions, what was the max width of the balde and what was its the lenght? and the late forms of pila? last: Cavalry type had similar dimensions?
