The ‘Apologia’ was possibly written in the early 1160s (see Bellevaux, ‘Apologia de barbis’, 137). Of course, there is no textual evidence that Livistros’s hair style is anything like as short as ‘en écuelle’ (i.e., shaved at the sides, front and back). It might equally well be longer, albeit round. For examples of longer round cuts, see the magnificent illuminations by Jehan de Grise (dated 1344) reproduced in James, M. R.
