The merge suggestion is not a good one. To dot our T's and cross our I's, in the original Latin, the passage in Vegetius, what is rendered "cornet" in the quote given in English in the article Cornu is in fact cornu: yes, they were distinct, although of the same family.

May be then we should change articles to state so? Not "same as", but "similar to"? --GreyCat 22:46, 24 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

I agree that the merge suggestion is not a good one. They are distinct objects, and their entries should remain separate to reflect that.

Just to point out, the picture on the right is actually a cornu, not a bucina... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.146.35.50 (talk) 09:52, 28 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
