Salvete,
Some pictures of an event we attended last weekend.
Other Roman groups present were Corbvlo, Gemina and Pax Romana. Amor Mortis gave a gladiatorial show.

But as Jef told "other Roman groups present". As far as I know teuxandrii did no Romans. They did local celtic people and slaves. One of the groups which was forgotten was Leg II avg (NL), from wich also 3 members were there.

Ah yes, I did forget Secunda Augusta. I had heard only one person was present, but you know them better than me

I thought they did "Germanic under Roman influence", not Celtic at this event.. :? There were gladiators for example..
From Teuxandrii site: Quote:Gallo-Germanic
1th to 5th century AD, Roman era
Civilians, craftsman, light armend auxillia infantry (velites) and scouts (exploratores).
But Garrelt might be of more use than me here.. :roll: :wink:

It's simply how you define the roles. I would say that the scout Garrelt showd us last weekend was in Roman service, but definatelly not a Roman, as where the gladiators they show. (and to see on the website: 'special provincial gladiators, other than the 'normal' roman types)
And with Celtic i meant (probably not that nice definition) all the folks up here, but germanic could be better description. But then again, as you say, germanic under roman influence, show they didn't display Romans

You also missed the Minervii! Late Romans, but Patrick and Jürgen made some fine Republican lictores:

I thought "Roman group" was kind of about groups who portray people living in and during the Roman world (or empire, or how you want to define it.. ) My bad..
I stand corrected then! lol:

I should have said early imperial mainstream romans :lol:
The minervi had very impressive equipment. I liked their impressions a lot!

Jürgen especially looks like he really, really wants to use the axe in his bundle of fasces on somebody's neck. :mrgreen:
