A long ramble by me. Possibly I should have done one video about Celtic/Roman four-pommelled saddles, and a separate one about how cavalry took a long time to develop.

I wasn't quite at my peak while making this one. I came back from abroad with a virus, and had spent the previous day coughing.

Buy the music - the music played at the end of my videos is now available here: https://lindybeige.bandcamp.com/track...
