Ave,<br>

I hail from New Jersey, and have always had an interest in the Roman Empire. University only reinforced that, and I have fun these days seeing how many books I own are in the bibiliographies of recent Roman History books.<br>
<br>
Anyone read Barton's new book; "Roman Honor"?<br>
<br>
I'm also a Chatti reenactor, although from a much later period.<br>

Recruit Auxilia reporting for duty! : )<br>
<br>
I've only recently developed an interest in Roman warfare and military organisation. This interest was largely due to miniature wargaming which led me to find out more on this topic. The specific periods that appeal to me are the Late Republic esp Julius Caesar's Gallic campaigns (I've recently finished reading his account of the Gallic Wars. Exciting stuff!) and Early Imperial Rome, 1st - 2nd century AD.<br>
<br>
I hope to learn more about the Roman military through joining this forum. I trust that others more knowledgeable than me will enlighten my relatively ignorant self on such matters. : ) <p></p><i></i>
We will certainly do our best Auxilla.<br>
Welcome, and ask as many questions as<br>
you desire. That's what keeps this board<br>
alive!<br>

Hello to all,<br>
<br>
I am sorry it has taken me so long to introduce myself. I have been perusing the Roman Army Talk for some time but did not register for a while and then did not post for even longer.<br>
<br>
I am a thirty year old Ancient Historian from New Zealand and am currently enrolled in a PhD at Sydney University. My specialist field is the genre of didactic military handbooks (Frontinus, Polyaenus, Aelian, Arrian, Onasander, Vegetius et. al.) and my particular axe to grind is that these were of some practical benefit despite modern historians and philologists low opinion of them.<br>
<br>
I am therefore concerned with Roman military history and theory generally for and for anything I can glean from it for my purposes.<br>
<br>
I hope to be a more frequent poster in the months ahead and I look forward to meeting you all.<br>
<br>
Yours Sincerely<br>
<br>
