In that case, no, I don't see anything remotely military in this mosaic. All figures wear a tunic with clavi. All figures are doing an agricultural task (I assume the main theme of this mosaic is fertility), all are accompanied by animals. If you want to see the boar as a military symbol, you must also find explanations for the dog, the lion and the leopard.
