Ambrosian Iliad- Late Roman soldier illustration
#16
I was that taken by the depiction of hoplite aspics, I never noticed the bosses or the rectangular scutum! :oops:

As to the stance, I would imagine it was quite common for legionairies too.
I recall the two soldiers from the mainz relief.
Visne partem mei capere? Comminus agamus! * Me semper rogo, Quid faceret Iulius Caesar? * Confidence is a good thing! Overconfidence is too much of a good thing.
