So what else do I do with my Pugio

[hoplite14gr]

Is it true that Caesar had his beard plucked??? hock:

Yes according to the "HISTORIA" magazine one method of shaving was
pulling the hair one by one with a special pincer.
Thalamos actualy was mentioned as "feather handed" with this method.
Because rasor and cuts difiguring the face were supposed to be against
Roman vanity so much as to be considered vulgar!!
For the emperor and the rich hemostatic ointments and oils were available but for the common folk the burber was applying a spider (!!!!!!) tucked first in oil :!:
Well they were shaving actually despite all that because nobody wanted to be called "woolly" or "Billy-goat". :!:
Kind regards
