Salve meum commes
Does anyone have any comments on the use of the above? Were or were they not used by Legionary or Auxilliary soldiers? If so were they more common in any particular period? Was it an Officer thing? Have any finds been made? If not should we then immediately assume they weren't used? I made a pair which I used in an impression posted in the re-enactment section and the topic was brought up. Only a small point I know, but still of interest to me.
Also, probably the wrong section, but hey lets go for it, Does any one know where to get a good hastsa or at least the business end (point) in the UK? Does Len Morgan make them?
Look forward to your comments
Vale for now
