Quote:I meant that "drawing in to wire" has been an invention of the Middle Age and that the romans made the round rings by hammering to round piece of wire! Am I wrong?There is plenty of evidence to demonstrate that the Romans used drawn wire - including at least two extant draw plates. One found at Vindolanda, Britain. The other found near Dusseldorf, Germany.
