Fishes instead of eyebrows on helmets?
#7
hmmm the pic is interesting.he's really wearing his sword on the left. there is another thread here with a quote from Flavius Iosephus mentioning the sword on the left. well anyways...when you look at the first pic posted here from the Mainz relief may the soldier in front be wearing his sword on the left as well? maybe it's just not represented at all but on the other hand he clearly isn't wearing it on the right and the left side is covered by his shield but his belt is visible. maybe another depiction of a soldier wearing his sword on the left? i mean maybe the right was standard but when I think back to my time in the army some wore their knife standard way , some, like me for instance, prefered to wear their knife on the left upper side, over the left breast upside down.hmmmm....makes you think lol
