Hello all,
As written in my introduction i have a deep interest in the Eastern Roman Empire, or more popular the Byzantine empire of the 9th and 10th century.
I am looking for people that can help me on my way, off course i have the the guides made by Timothy Dawson and books.
But i am mainly looking for people that can direct me to traders who sell items such as belt buckles and ornaments, other metal basic items such as cutlery and stuff that a normal civilian/traveler or simple soldier would have used.
Clothing i can make myself, but metal items not.
Also i am looking for a nice Byzantine 10th century Spatha or sword.
I hope someone can help me out, as i want to make a simple but authentic Byzantine impression.
Thanks,
Sjoerd van de Wal
