Help with Pic

Need a hand guys

We’re looking for a good hi res pic of a reconstructed La Tene period spear. If you can find one for us, we’d be indebted.

Cheers

Thanks guys, appreciate the help. May be able to use some of these.

We have plenty of artifacts (ie weathered archeological bits) but no nice high res reconstructions.

If you come across anything else, please let us know.

Cheers

Too early but great site:

High quality reconstructions -early Hallstatt:

Nice Gaul cavalry --> the proportions of the spears are interesting

Thanks Gealai. Yer our Frence friends in the Ambiani group have already been contributing to EB. I have fired off an email to them with this exact same request but with time differences and they not checking their mail all that regularly I was hoping to find something a bit sooner rather than later.

Might be worth asking on the Council for British Archaeology mailing list. It's pretty quick and easy to join, and the folk are generally helpful. They might be interested in the mod too.

Nice close up shots of a blade and butt made by Manning Imperial...

Also on they have a Celtic spear head elsewhere on thier site that resembles that used by the Iberian Scutarii.

Hope that helps...
