Hamata for low class Bucellarius

[Agraes]

Hi John,
This is also precisely the period Im re-enacting with my fellow Letavi. I guess your interrogations about tunics have been well answered.

Our main weapons are scutii and hastae, and as side weapons we use either axes, sax or spathae.
For helmets, we variate between spangenhelms, ridge helmets (which were old fashionned by that time but we are Britons and it's clear that they remained in use at least in Britain) or even simple 'bowl helmets' which were probably quite common but are not often reproduced. Here one from Vienna:


As for body armor, it is your choice! In my point of view, a soldier in a limitanei unit (still around in Gaul up to circa 540 according to Procopius) or a town militiaman would not be rich enough to get a lorica.
