eagle - vergilius - 01-07-2008 I've read that they found evidence that the legion left England, so they certainly didn't disappear in England. (great story though) What's interests me is that the autor claims that archaeologists found an eagle there. I never heard before that a roman eagle ever was found Re: eagle - vergilius - 01-07-2008 my mistake, should have been under 'new recruits' Re: eagle - jvrjenivs - 01-07-2008 Quote:my mistake, should have been under 'new recruits' Why should this put under 'new recruits'. That topic isn't for questions, but to introduce yourself. Otherwise, I can't answer your question. I don't know about any legions eagle ever found, but that wouldn't say there aren't found any. Re: eagle - vergilius - 01-07-2008 I was answering a question on that topic? I only know of a cohort sign that's been found but never of an eagle.Interesting question though. Re: eagle - jvrjenivs - 01-07-2008 Ow, sorry, didn't read the original question then. Re: eagle - vergilius - 01-07-2008 no probs! I've put the question under roman history and archaeology. Re: eagle - Winter - 04-18-2008 I'll have to actually download this, but maybe it might help. A Roman Eagle in Rochester Charles Hoeing American Journal of Archaeology, Vol. 29, No. 2 (Apr. - Jun., 1925), pp. 172-179 (article consists of 8 pages) Published by: Archaeological Institute of America Re: eagle - Winter - 04-28-2008 Well, a week of research and discussions and it appears that there are no surviving Roman Eagles. Bummer. I relatively new to the study of Roman history so this probably comes as no to surprise to many here but it was fun to look into it. Now to see if I can't track down where one might be hiding! |
