History until fairly recently can be described as the great deeds of great men. As such, if you were of the elite, you'd learn about the deeds of your family and how they related to where you lived. Books/manuscripts were rare and expensive. It would be rare to read/possess them. For the man on the street, probably the old way would be via plays. This changes with the printing press.
As for asia/south america. No idea

Pula we’re designed to bend so they can’t be used by the enemy. You wouldn’t reuse them in a battle. As for evidence, Josephus’s Jewish War, vegetius’s De Re Militibus, Arch of Titus and Trajans column are all good places to start

Certainly in England they were manufactured in vast quantities by the royal armouries. The could have had makers marks but quantities would suggest no

Say they think… no proof that Anglo Saxon kings feasted there. Suppose it better than calling it ritual
