Very interesting and informative. Can I ask where you pulled this info from?
I agree with you, I think. Some of those swords seem impossible to use without two hands.
I knew I had seen the picture before somewhere but I wasn't sure where or if they were even La Tene swords. In the topic that got locked, I mentioned that I thought it had been brought up before, but wasn't sure.
And how is this a bait question? I personally think the idea that there were no two-handers is unlikely. I mean, they obviously have huge swords, how much of a step is it to add some extra handle? Anyways, it's just a question. I have no vested interest in one answer or another. I'm not out to get you.
The point of this thread was to put the evidence in one place where we could all look at it and discuss it. I thought that's what scientists and historians did.
Though I notice some of those swords have different backgrounds around them, like they were taken at separate times. Does anyone know where that image came from in the first place?
