I call Roman "steel" an alloy of iron and carbon, which is the definition of steel.

That's nice but they didn't have that technology. But by all means post some references to that. Every historian I know of considers Rome an iron age empire ( the republic was more bronze age ) but maybe you know better than ALL OF THEM.
