Outstanding, loads of information! thanks.

This is fantastic because it is new information.. there are so many books on Carthage and Republican Roman army mish mash, based of the same sources used in the last volume as source from the last volume, ad infinitum… any infusion of new items adds more… and if they find actual identifiable Carthaginian artifacts this will exceptional.

Thank you!

I always thought that the bronze rams were larger, but it's nice to see a human next to one for scale purposes… ;-)

As Zepher said, I had thought the rams were much bigger.

Cool link, thanks,
