([url:2ywm7l4t]http://www.arte.tv/de/geschichte-gesellschaft/Germanen-und-Wikinger/1604022.html[/url])
SUNDAY, 28th of July, 20.45 MEZ (GMT)
2. Is it worthwhile ?
Yes, but well ahhh ...
Suevians on horses with stirrups in 58 B.C.,
Suevians fighting with roman (legionary) scuta in 58 B.C., Roman troopers fighting in lorica segmentata and with imperial gallic or imperial italic helmets at that time :?: (as far as I could identify it -- well, ahmm, some clad in lorica hammata and with coolus-style helmets were there too) made my mind permanently try and switch to the "don't take that to serious, don't look too close, try to enjoy yourself"-modus. :wink:
Well, ahhhh, "ye olde hollywood gladiator syndrome" ?? .....even a strong influence of Cinecitta ?? hock: (Am I kiddin now ? :wink: )
In the end I'd say it was a fair introduction to the subject for "the entertainment crowd".
(So the "entertainment part" of me surely well be watching :wink: )
