Cool link Duncan!<br>

I have simply translated it from an italian academic article. I did a bad job. I will report this translation much better.<br>

Anyway what is important is the colour "red" (burrus) as you correctly mentioned. The italian article emphatized a lot this detail and the other possibility of "yellow" (birrus) has not been considered.<br>

<br>
Aitor: very good pic!<br>

About socks we must not forget the image on Roman Military Clothing 1 of the egyptian socks found similar to many others. It looks very coloured! <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p200.ezboard.com/bromanarmytalk.showUserPublicProfile?gid=luca@romanarmytalk>Luca</A> <IMG HEIGHT=10 WIDTH=10 SRC="http://www.romanhideout.com/legiov/Images/lucamain.jpg" BORDER=0> at: 8/6/04 5:42 pm<br></i>
