weapons and armour of the greek marine
#12
Hi Wolfgang !
I rather like Luke's hypothesis - it does explain plausibly why we never seem to hear of this 12' dory in use elswhere - and I know from personal experience that even an 8' dory is difficult to wield one-handed.
Which conclusions do you find un-convincing ?
