SALVE
In a recent article published in the ESG's Bulletin EXERCITUS, Connolly refuse the old idea that pilum was designed to bend in a impact.
He analizes the archaeological evidence and propose that the "standar" pilum represented by the Oberaden exemplar was substituted early in the first century by another tipe, a lot less complicated to do.
So, all the groups probably have to remake our pila... :roll:
Or maybe not? :?:
