im looking for information on roman archery in britain and the bows used.
were the first composit bow archers in britain the scythians and did they arrive with clavdivs?
ive heard of bows being found up on hadrians wall. but are they dont seem to be the bows id excpect a scythian archer to use so i take it more archers were drafted from somewhere else in the empire. does anyone know who they were? :?
and last of all which may be the hardest to answer,is there any evidence that composit bows were made in britain at this time? :?
oh and did britains ever join the roman army as archers,if they did, did they use longbows or composit? :?
thanks for the help all :wink:
