It's very dissapointing to learn/know that Romans did not use drums, as far as we can tell now, for marching and such...Heck, they could have banged thier sheilds with pila or gladii for all we know but noone cared to carve it into something back then.<br>

It makes the classical piece "The Pines of Rome: Pines of the Appian Way" by Respighi seem so unfitting for what otherwise makes a kick-ass Roman-sounding composition.<br>
<br>
::SIGH:: oh well.<br>
<br>
By the way, I thought Romans marched Right foot first, so it would have been Dex, Dex, Dex, Sin, Dex?<br>
