Roman legion presentation - Scream92 - 01-09-2015
Salvete everyone,
Just preparing to make a presentation on the Roman Legions to a world history class here pretty soon, and I'll be the only one, so the spotlight will be on me. I do intend to create a powerpoint in the background, unless someone else thinks they've an excellent one to use.
Any recommendations on an order of presentation? Besides the obvious core things regarding a legionary and the legion, what do you all think I should include?
I'll have a scutum, Fulham and Pompeiian Gladii, segmentata, subarmalis, tunica, balteus, pugio, caligae, and a gallic H to show at the school.

Well, it all depends on your aim. This could be anything.
-Show the clothed, equipment etc of a single (legionairy) soldier?
-Show the army organisation
-A typical day at the castra
-Battle tactics.
All can be supported by powerpoint, either with pictures of the archeological records, artist impressions and re-enactment photo's, or by qoutes from the historical sources.
Also interesting to know is your audience. What do they expect. Which age? Prior knowledge in (Roman)history or archeology, etc.
