Oh my god, you know what this discovery means? Books need to be rewritten, illustrations repainted and how many reenactment groups have wasted their money on a hugh golden eagle????<br>
<br>
The legionary eagle carried into battle was only 3 to 5 cm in size!!!! THAT's why they lost them sometimes! Just imagine to try and find this tiny thing on a muddy battlefield <p></p><i></i>
