Roman Archery - Help Needed

[Quadratus]

Hi Folks

I'm looking for some help with my latest project. Although I've been keen on all things Roman for many years, and a practicing archer for nearly as long, I've never made a decent study of Roman archery. Now I would like to put that right and I'm hoping that the good folk of RAT can help me with references and material, as not having access to university libraries and the like, not to mention holding down a day job, I find locating suitable reference material difficult.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Books, articles, conference papers, ancient or modern - anything that will help. Is there some sort of definitive study and I'm just not aware of it? Is there some ancient author who gives useful details hidden in the more familiar texts? Anything reliable available on the web would be particularly useful.

Anyway, I'm sure you get the idea. Anything that would help gratefully received. And of course, if my project ever comes to fruition (some do, some don't - ho hum) I'll be delighted to share with you all.

Thanks and valete.
