Massive gathering in Germania in 2009

[Tib. Gabinius]

Hm, thats right Robert, but perhaps its possible to connect one of these events.
Xanten (Ulpia Traiana) would be the best background we can have and it has also enough space and room to get more than just a few groups.

In fact, theres no event taking part in Germany that would be compareable to a real big festival with more than 200 roman soldiers, if we would get them really (i m still somewhat sceptic about that )

If you ask me, i m for a multi period event with the try to show the evolution of roman army on place and in a shedule of "shows".

In Trier, the best and biggest german roman groups, the "Bitburger" Legio XXII Primigenia and the "Römerkohorte Opladen" dont take part anymore as far as i know.
Kalkriese wouldnt have the room to expand more than they did last year.

And if we dont do it right close to Kalkriese and Xanten, i dont fear that they would feel attacked But thats just my opinion.


If there is the want of a "one period" event, i guess the number of reenactors wouldnt be that big and it could be integrated into Kalkriese or Xanten.
The only missed possibility is a big late roman event on german ground...
