Salve!

Some questions have arisen in the course of my plotting/researches.. I
don't think this is exactly the right place to ask, but it's a start, no?
*Grins*

I've become interested in hunting - from Roman times right up into the
Middle Ages. What I'd like to know is:

Did the Romans hunt for pleasure? The nobles this is.

Did they hunt on foot or horseback?

Did they hunt with bow and arrow? Deer fer instance.

Is it realistic to imagine a hunting scene where the hunters are on
horseback and the weapon is a bow? Would they have to dismount before
firing? Did anyone ever hunt this way?

Are there any historical accounts of hunting accidents?

Information or opinion from anyone on these matters would be greatly
appreciated. Information on where I could look for answers is also most
welcome.

Thanks!

Che

Salve, Che;

One of the most exciting hunts that people of the equestrian class and
above would undertake would be hunting boar and / or bear with a boar
spear. They used horses and dogs to find the quarry and the person(s)
who actually did the killing would attack the animal with a heavy boar
spear, having a heavy leaf-shaped blade and a cross-piece just below it
to hold the animal at bay when a strike had been made. The trick,
however, was to be quick enough to make a straight and killing stab blow
before the Boar or Bear could savage you. Happy Hunting!!!!

Vale, Respectfully;
Marcus Minucius Audens
