Winter Clothing in 1st century AD legionary re-enactment
#77
I often hear the comment that Romans said (in relation to Celts en Germans) that wearing (short) trousers is a feminine thing to do... Where does this idea come from? I have the feeling it's a reenactorism. Or is there realy a Roman writer who wrote this ones somewere????
