Quote:This hardly makes sense, though, given the fact that Livy explicitly tells us that at Cynoscephalae the Thracians' rhomphaiai were too long to be of use in woods!

Actually, Cynoscephalae was probably rocky open terran, no woods - the incident you refer to ocurred in a heavily wooded pass elsewhere
