Quote:....the Newcastle sauroter cannot be from a sarissa. The 'winged' sauroter and joining tube have a diameter of around 39-40 mm, and even at this diameter a reconstruction by Connolly had natural bend.( see attached) The Newcastle sauroter has a diameter of 19-20 mm - typical of the dory but impossibly thin for a sarissa.....

Do you have any proper measurements of this butt? I would be really interested, as I do not have any. I know only the length (38cm) and a simple calculation of proportions on the photo results in around 30 mm for the socket width is quite similar to the smaller winged butts (from a tomb III in Vergina, or an Agios Athanasios tomb). What's more, the diameter of socket do not have to fit exactly diameter of shaft. From tomb III in Vergina comes winged butt with about 30-40 cm of shaft preserved and it's definitely wider than the socket, by about 0.7-1 cm.
