Questions about Mr. Khorasani's lecture

Ok, since no one seems to comment... I actually liked Manoucher's lecture, I did find it very informative and concise. Concerning the points - may be he used slightly stronger phrases than he should have, I mean I don't disagree with the principle that there was a competition between stabbing and slashing cavalry techniques, that ancient bronze is not as well studied as it could have been and that gladius is primaraly a stabbing weapon. Now, details may be slightly off.
