Hi folks,
I am an active Roman re-enactor, but one troop type that has always interested me was the mercenary peltast. Thus, I would like to create a later peltast/thureophorus impression.
Any references to them, and expecially their arms, armor, fighting techniques would be very helpful to me, especially sources of supply for appropriate kit items.
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Edge
