unarmoured auxiliaries
#1
is there any evidence to suggest or disprove that auxiliary spearmen serving in the rear rank in the 1st-2nd century may or may not have worn body armour, I really see no reason why some might have lacked this. Armour was expensive, and also troops of some ethnicities would have a a cultural reason not to wear it. <p></p><i></i>
