0:00.0 | Hi everyone and welcome to another episode of Ancient Warfare Answers with me, Murray, your weekly fix of 10 minutes of ancient warfare, concentrated ancient warfare thinking to take you away from whatever's happening in your everyday lives and to distract you from the real world. |
0:21.1 | And of course, what I do here is attempt to answer questions by viewers, listeners and readers. |
0:25.5 | You can send me a question. |
0:27.5 | However, you can postcard, email, comment on a video or a previous podcast. |
0:35.1 | Randomly put a comment somewhere, somewhere on the internet and hope it gets |
0:38.9 | to us. You can send us an email at Murray at Carvansaripublishers.com, yell loudly if you're |

0:53.7 | a question. You can, of course, back us on Patreon on patreon one of three different levels legionary optio and |

1:25.6 | almost 300 ancient warfare answers by themselves. |
1:28.4 | Anyway, today's question is from now, is this Mr. Uke E. Ward? Mr. Uke Ward? M. Rook Ward. Maybe M. Rook Ward, |
1:40.5 | but Mr. Ucky Ward. Anyway, good to hear a follow-up question from a previous post, thanks. |
1:47.3 | There are many we just don't knows. Yes, indeed, there are many, many we just don't |
1:51.1 | knows. But I'd like it if you would explore some of the tropes or not tropes for uniforms. |
1:55.2 | For example, the Spartan Lambda Shield or ancient Egyptian headwear. Right, don't know |
