Auxiliary soldiers depicted on the Adamklissi metopes are shown wearing their swords on the left. Even earlier, Josephus, writing on the Jewish War in the AD60s talks of Roman soldiers wearing two swords, the long worn on the left. This would appear to mean that the sword was on the left and the dagger on the right.
