Hi Michael,

Quote:In archery we have three goals; to shoot accurately, to shoot powerfully, to shoot rapidly.
- Anonymous Byzantine general, On Strategy (Peri Strategias) c. AD 527 - 65
Are you referring to De Re Strategica of Syrianus Magister, formerly the 6th-c. Anonymus Byzantinus? Philip rance has recently demostrated that this work is not 6th c., but most likely from the 10th. c.
