Quote:On the gladius.
Anyone above the rank of Tribune never wore a sword as near as I can tell. They sometimes carry a short staff as a legatus or the parazonium, emperors are never seen with a gladius as far as I know.
Here's some evidence for higher-ups wearing baldrics on the left-side.
The Emperor Honorius.
