I was just going through this thread and I have never formed one definite certainty on tunic colour however I was under the idea that yellow was the colour what Roman Brides wear on thier wedding. Unfortunately I do not have the source for this information and at this time I cannot recall where I had read this. Now my ONLY point in this is that would a ROMAN soldier wear Yellow even though others would. And should a Roman end up in yellow would not this be unique enough to be noted in some writing somewhere? As far as first c. bc / ad I would say yellow was porbably not used by standard legionaries. - Octavianus
