lothia Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Ave, Civitas, I am doing some research on a planned novel and I was wondering what the translation of: Constantini Dafnenses would be in English, Or rather, what does Dafnenses mean. I think it refers to a sword, but I am not sure. If it does, then would Constantini Dafnenses translate to The sword of Constantine or Constantine's Sword? Likewise with Balistarii Dafnenses. Balistari is a crossbow, I think, so where does sword come in? See why I am confused? Thanks for your help. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
