No, i excavated in a place called "Monte de S. Lourenço" near the city of Esposende. It was a "castro" prior the roman ocupation, and continued until the V century. <p></p><i></i>

Well there is a lot for a student to learn about everything Roman as I have found out. There are very knowledgeable people here that know just about everything about Rome and many good conversations ensue. So enjoy. <p>THERE ARE NO STUPID PEOPLE, ONLY PEOPLE STUPID ENOUGH TO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY'VE MADE A MISTAKE</p><i></i>

I'm from the Philippines. I was always interested in Ancient Rome specifically the late republic and early empire. I think what started it was studying Julius Caesar by Shakespeare in high school. I stumbled on this site while surfing the web. I read a few threads and was very impressed. I don't have any formal education on Ancient Rome or the Roman Army but I have a few books. I have some medical training.<br>

I'm from Poland and I'm 20.<br>
I'v become interested in Roman Army when I was 11 years old after reading Peter Connolly's books ("Roman Army" and "The Greek Armies"). My favourtie period in Roman military history is IIIrd century AD. I also like to draw ancient warriors. It's good thing that this forum exists, for me it is almost only place where I can talk to other people interested in Roman warfare, as it is not very popular epoch amongst historians in my country.<br>
Sorry for any language flaws, I'm still learning English.<br>

Hail friends!<br>

I'm from Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. A 23 year old semi-professional student (BS Aviation) heh, with a definite love for Roman history, especially the Roman military machine.<br>
<br>
Currently I'm an active member with the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) and hopefully that won't get me booed out of here immediately. (I know the SCA isn't the most historically stringent group out there, just the biggest.) In any case I have been re-enacting various time periods for 5 years now.<br>
<br>
I'm here to expand my knowledge and understanding of Roman military history, equipement etc. Also hopefully to acquire new contacts for gaining more Roman equipment (with a major emphasis on historically accurate and functional re-enactment pieces)... and above all to make some new friends from around the world.<br>
<br>
How'd I become interested in Rome? Can't rightly say for sure... past life perhaps? I can't remember when I first picked up a picture book on Rome and "read" through it. All I know is that back in grade 2 I could name all the major Greek gods and most of the Roman equivalents. What have I learned since then? Not much... in fact I probably knew more back then. Which goes back to the point of why I'm here.<br>
<br>
Heres to many good and long discussions to come. Cheers!<br>

Sgt Steiner, you're in luck! There's a thriving Roman/Ancients group based in NSW (mostly Sydney, I think)! Email Wayne Robinson at [email protected] and tell him Egfroth sent you . . . <p></p><i></i>
