i kno the early republicans wor lorica hamata, and later the traditional lorica segmentata
but what about later?
did they still wear segmentata?
mostly what were there helmets like? there shields? there armour?
did they still fight as a large discpiled unit? with the pilum throwing, and gladius stbbing techinique? or were they just charging madly like barbarians?
When one is standing at the well,he needn't
ask others for water.

sorry i thought thats what this site was for
Quidquid agis prudenter agas et respice finem!

Well Francis, you are right, but these questions have been asked before, and more than once. And frankly, you ask faster than I can answer. So indeed, if you would use the search function and read what has been answered before, that would also answer your questions.
That's what this site is for.
thanx for the links
sorry to be such a bother
