Hi Alan,
Quote:Some parts of the impression can be found earlier, like the splint greaves that date back to the Scytian era but continued into late Roman Britain.Actually we Late Romans tend not to use splint greaves because that can't be dated to anywhere before the 7th century.. I would surely welcome your references to splint greaves in Late Roman times, Britain or elsewhere!
