still in Hungary having attended Romec.
A mixed bag of items. Some of which I found very interesting and others...................... not so interesting.
highlights for me were
Mike Bishop and David Sim talking about the Carlisle armour--
Carol van Driel-Murray on shoes
Guy Stiebels presentation on equipment from judea
these especially will mean some changes to the way we think about Roman military equipment
also interesting a hand held ballista from xanten
florian himmler did a good presentation on hob-nail wear and Ramshaw boots
and some new images for the database
couple of standard bearers
some cavalry
infantry
and cornu (x3)
from aquincum
