Nice to see another reenactor joining the community. I don't happen to be one myself, but I do appreciate the dedication required... and the contribution you all make to expanding the public's appreciation of the Roman military.

Salvete,
I'm new here and I've been interested in roman history for long. Earlier I did some painting of ancient miniature figures and modelled dioramas. But with time interest grew and by now I've decided together with two friends to become legionaries (at least for some time) ;-) ) ... Our objective is to participate in the reenactment of the Varian disaster in 2009 in Kalkriese. Currently I'm working on my scutum and pilum.

A fascinating and historic event... but not one of Rome's greatest achievements. Perhaps you'll be inspired to recreate one of her victories in the future!
Your are absolutely right, but it seems those victories do not have as much public appeal as the disasters...
In 2009 the Varian disaster will be commemorated with a lot of events here in Germany.
This year they told us that the biannual weekend event in Kalkriese is planned to last a whole week 2009.
Also Augustdorf (another town claimnig to be near the site of the historic battle) is already holding an event each year and is planning something special for 2009
@Carsten: If you realy want to be part of the 2009 Kalkriese Römertage then your best bet is to find a reenactment group close to you that is planing to attend that event and apply for membership.

Justed wanted to say "hello".
I'm Evy (Eve in english) and I'm 28 years old.
I'm interested in ancient history in general, so it was a normal choice to sign up here.
As a living, I have my own beauty-center.
Bye :wink: ,
Eve

Well Robert recreating victories is fine as well - but totally agree with Olaf ;-) ) ...
... and as I have only little time besides studying, I'll have to concentrate on the top-event first.

@Olaf: I will think about it, but I can't say for sure, whether we'll be there. So joining a established group would mean a lot responsibility.
