    Default A question on the Hypaspists

    I have a question on the Hypaspists: What are the evidences which shows that these soldiers fought with a short lance?

    -When Alexandre assassinates Cleithos, he uses a sarrise seized by the hands of one of its guards, role of the hypaspists.

    -Nicanor, at the time of the war against Getai, uses its men to flatten wheat with sarisses. Nicanor is the chief of the hypaspists.

    Thank you for your help.
