Looks to be fairly recent.

Doing a little searching the chapter is from the following book, published by Brill this year.

At the usual sort of Brill price.
But you've found us the most interesting chapter, so thanks!
I don't think it is published yet. leastways Amazon have not tapped me for my pre order!
Should be interesting. There is not a vast amount new to say about the Ostrogothic military, its more a matter of what weighting you put on what evidence. One could make a case for cataphract cavalry with contos and combined archer/ spear units ( or even some warband equivalent) or go for javelin spear unarmoured cavalry with foot as mainly archers and support both cases or a mixture.
We await
