My gears are grinded whenever someone states with confidence when the sylloge Tacticorum was written and their date isn't 902. It is written on the cover of it that it was written in 902 AD and while a large number of people for some reason cast doubt on that date, it is incredibly foolish to then state whatever date you think it was written as fact -it is not, it is conjecture (at best)
