Re: Arrian's 'Darters' and 'Targeteers' ??
With all reservations and thanks in advance for this but who is Christakis whose words you quote? Is he a writer? I could not find him anywhere.Nicator wrote:I presently have them written as 'skirmishers' and may leave it at that with a footnote. Thanks for the info.

Re: Christmas Present
Alexias, as usual your remarks are valuable and insightful.
