Quote:is that the gladiator with the weapon which his arm fits into and terminates in a curved blade?
I have come back from Turkey and have some clearer IMHO photos of some of the above
they appear to be wearing tunics
Yes, it is the gladiator with the curved blade on the left arm. According to Junkelmann he wears a lorica hamata (coat of mail) because he has no shield as body protection. Maybe if the relief isn't done too well the lorica looks like a tunic.
Would be great if you would post your photos here :lol:
