Hi guys
looking at nice pictures of roman (saxon) shore forts of a recent thread I ask:
Has anyone made a survey and obtained statistics of roman walls with projecting towers and compared the distance between them and similar towers in medieval forts and castles? AND also compared these typical distances with the effective ranges of faithful reconstructions of defensive weapons used for infilading enemy approaching walls?
