Hi how are you guys,
It is only an opinion, but it is based on some previous reading that i have done. I think it is very probable that a horseman could and would carry both bow and lance since either one can be sheathed and tied to the back of the horse, in the comfortable position right behind the saddle. It certainly has been true of the Mongolian warriors, which probably puts most of the Eastern Europe in the same category. I don't see why a Japanese warrior couldn't do the same thing. Thanks.
Sincerely,
Igor Lurye.
