Second stipendia : Rosalias?
#4
Thank you very much for the reference!

Joking: Marcus could be a veteran, and sextus a simple miles Smile Or Marcus could be a centurion. Do we know if officers had their stipendia the same day?

Do we have an idea about how stipendia would take place? Everybody in a line, waiting for payment? Was the aquilifer in charge of everybody, or does he could get help from the others signifers?

Do we have some evidence about something more religious, more "official"? An oath maybe? Or something like "thank you my emperor"?

It's hard at this point for me to get a precise image of how a stipendium was...

I'm thinking about drawing the aquilifer, with a lion skin on his helmet, with incense and looking at the eagle. He is helped by two signiferi. In a line, behind them, many vexilla. In front of them, the soldiers. In front of the miles, the tubicen, with their tuba aiming at the eagle.

It's very early in the morning, the sky is still pink.

Were is the treasure? Were is the legatus? I don't know.

No roses then.

Thanks a lot for any help Smile
