I just received some arrowheads from Hector Cole.
He is very quick and I really love the botkins!
Makes several roman designs directly based upon finds from Vindolanda,...
"Aluscladiusmaximus", I was in contact with "Reiner" from traditional archery. He is in the opinion that scythian arrows, and also arrows used during firt century a.d. by the roman army were made of shafts; 6mm diameter at the ends and 8 mm at te middle... This would make their flight more stable. I don't know what his references are however. What's your opinion on this matter?
Best regards,
Tom
