Morning Chaps
Am busy tweaking my Auxiliary impression for this year. I was at the "Wall" last weekend and I read that there was a cohort of the above stationed at the wall. They were from a tribe originally from the midlands area and unfortunately I cannot find any reference to them. Can anyone help. Also whilst on the subject can anyone say imperatively that Auxiliaries only used the Hasta? - It seems logical that if the pilum was such a successful piece of kit its' use would have been widespread throughout the army and not saved solely for the use of the Legionary.
