1st century Roman elephants in battle
#3
That is an interesting discussion. Yet, how about elephants in Roman use? I would think that they made their own modifications to the Sucessors' practice of elephant warfare.
I was able to check out a copy of Kistler's "War Elephants," but I don't see a mention of Roman elephants' equipment. It seems like most authors are concerned with events, and not the objects (arms & armor) used in those events! Thank goodness for RAT! I enjoy the study of objects!
