Greetings folks. Been doing a little research thru some of the books I have, trying to find a combination of when a spangenhelm constructon helm, lamellar body armor, mail armor and still using a rectangular scutum.
Cant remember the main book I am using, have been told is a popular one for reenactors, will add it to this once I get hom, but basically its a book on roman armor and weapons, starting from Republic times thru the Fall of Rome.
But it seems, that from what I have read, if I stick with a personna around 250 AD, it would be plausible to have that combination. But not sure how plausible, of all those elements residing in the same spot.
Anyone have any thoughts on this.
Thanks for your time
