Abstract

The recent excavations in Călugăreni / Mikháza (Mureș County, Romania) have revealed one of the most notable categories of militaria related to the oriental archers stationed here, namely the iron arrowheads. Beside the discovery of bow ear-lath fragments, bone arrow nocks attest the intensive use of composite bows at this Roman military site.
