Update on 1st Century Sarmatian Weapons
#2
We do care! I am intrigued by the scabbard slide and how far down the scabbard it is placed (illustration 1)

Are there any metallurgical reports on the weapons included in this book?

I'm also intrigued by the image of the two horsemen and what looks like an upside down face at the point of the Kontos? Most odd! (And the plaited tail...and the fact the horse looks more like a mule!!)

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Merlot in one hand, Cigar in the other; body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, what a ride!
