'Astonishing' Roman boxing gloves found near Hadrian's Wall in knockout discovery
'Astonishing' Roman boxing gloves found near Hadrian's Wall in knockout discovery Archeologists have hailed as "astonishing" the discovery of what are believed to be the only surviving examples of Roman boxing gloves. Thought to date from AD120, they have been well preserved thanks to the oxygen-free environment underneath the concrete floor that had been laid by the Romans at the cavalry barrack beneath the stone fort of Vindolanda, south of Hadrian's Wall. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/astonishing...covery-1662466 |
