Roman Standards

Quote:To my knowledge a Roman labarum was a vexillum with the Chi Ro monogram on it.

Vale,

I'm interested in a text description if you get one. Without genuine description, we imagined something quite bigger.

The labarum is the mark of the presence of an emperor with his troops, but as the Chi-Ro comes from a mystical vision, perhaps is it only a symbolic presence. We thought it was reserved to the physical presence of the emperor but we can perhaps understand this "presence" differently.

Vale
