Just for the sake of playing the Devils Advocate here, why! The length of the tunic dont have to be longer if the Hamata is made to protect the torso. Could it have to do with riding in some way? Shorter tunics don´t get in the way of your legs on a horseback?

Why should the Aux. be portraied in a more heroic, nude way than the Leg. ?

I could imagine it be practical to have shorter tunics if you where a trooper equipped for fast moving light infantry jobs, on and of horseback, flanking, scirmishing(sp?) and other such missions.

Is there any contradictionary pictures of Auxilia that shows something other?
