Plumbata are substantial war darts that have their origins in Ancient Greece and were favoured by late Empire Romans. In my first video here , I experimented with them and following more thought and your amazing comments I have come back to experiment more. Longer shafts, more fletchings and thrown everyway I could, by hand, by throwing strings and with a staff sling. Just how far can you throw them and which way get them the furthest?
