You guys may be interested in this reproduction (from a recovered piece) issued by Museum Reproductions in the UK: [link=http://www.museumreproductions.co.uk/images/no21.jpg newwindow]Syrian Archer's Thumb Ring[/link].<br>
<br>
I'm an archer trying work out just what kind of kit a 3rd C Roman archer would have. Can I get away with a yew bow in Roman-Britiain? As a practice bow? With or without horn end pieces? What about uniform?<br>
<br>
Any help appreciated ... <p></p><i></i>
