Question about the Roman \'wedge formation\'
#91
Until we see your theory, we obviously cannot offer any comment upon it. However, you seem to imply that, not only is there no evidence of the tactic being used against Boudica, there is no evidence of its being used by the Romans at all. If this is so, however attractive it may appear, the theory can be no more than speculation and, dare I say it, perhaps something more for the novelist than the historian.
