The museum didn't have much Roman military equipment, except for some Coolus type helmets. Remarkably litle for such a huge museum actually. There were many Roman statues and other items though. Lots of Greek stuff too, including military. And the Egyptian halls were really neat too, they even had a complete temple over there. Highly recommended!
