Which nation forced Romans to change their armor?
score:15
Accepted answer
You may be thinking of Dacia and their Falx.
The falx may have defeated Roman armor more by form and use(as a two-handed weapon) then by superior steel however.
The book The Dacian Threat, by Michael Schmitz discusses this on page 39. Some of the upgrades caused included:
- issued the manica to legionnaires fighting the Dacians
- modified forms of the lorica squamata and lorica hamata
- reinforced helmets
