Summary

A long and lively discussion of Ancient Warfare Magazine IX.6 "The Aftermath of Battle".

"When we think about warfare in the ancient world, the first thing that probably pops into mind are images of men, clad in armour, fighting each other. Battle usually draws a lot of attention, and there have been many heated discussions about the nature and mechanics of combat. By comparison, there is often less interest in what happens after battle has been decided and the dust has settled. But the aftermath of conflict is no less interesting than the fight itself, as this issue of Ancient Warfare magazine will demonstrate."

Angus is joined by Josho Brouwers, Murray Dahm, Lindsay Powell, Mark McCaffery and Cezary Kucewicz.

0:53.3	It was nearly all Greek
0:57.2	basically
0:58.2	what I could get as far as the Romans are concerned
1:00.8	I put in this I think
1:02.1	I usually we get about
1:04.8	I get about 20 proposals for every issue of ancient warfare
1:07.7	usually it's more sometimes it's a little
1:09.9	less but usually it's 20 is about the minimum.

1:20.2	of battle.
