Quote:A good compilation of ancient spurs is here:

It's in spanish. It's made by RAT member Thersites.
P.D. In spanish spur is "espuela".
Fabulous, thankyou! I wish I spoke Spanish. Especially good to see the reconstruction of how ancient spurs were worn on shoes without heels, as modern spurs require you to wear shoes with heels for them to stay on - I was going to say that you needed to invent shoes with heels before you could invent spurs!
