Saluete commilitones,<br>
<br>
It's official: the second edition (the first one was in Albano Laziale) of the Roman legions event will be on 17-18 May 2003 within the Ostia antica archeological area, Roma.<br>
<br>
We'll have many europeans groups from Caesar to the V century AD, archers, six cavalrymen, artillery, a roman 15 tents camp.<br>
<br>
We'll do 2,5 hours of display, explanations and battles, two times per day, for a two days event. (16 May for the groups arriving)<br>
<br>
Of course, even if I'd love to have the most roman soldiers possible and you all, the budget forced me to stop the number at about 120-140 maximum, and that figure is already fulfilled by<br>
the confirmed europeans groups (about 160-170 available men). So, sadly I cannot do further invitations. Anyway if anyone is interested could write to me at the same( [email protected] ): if anyone will<br>
renounce at the last minute, they will can take their places.<br>
<br>
Just after the event, since 21 May 2003 to 13 June 2003, we will do a roman legions equipment (reconstructed pus some originals) exhibition at the Vittoriano compound Museum on the Capitolium in Roma.<br>
<br>
Both event and exhibition entrance will be free at all and for all.<br>
<br>
Valete,<br>

casta faue Lucina; tuus iam regnat Apollo ...
