Information on Rome\'s early barbarian opponents
#1
In particular I am looking for information or websites on Germanic and Dacian weapons and armor from the 1st-2nd centruy AD. Right off the bat I'll say that I know almost nothing about the Germans and only a scant amount on the Dacians, but from what I have been able to surmise I gather the Celtic-style spatha was the main sword that the Romans faced (besides the falx obviously). I've already read about a German copy of the gladius. Plus on one site I read that bronze swords were somewhat common, is this so?<br>
<br>
If this is off topic, forgive a newbie<br>
