Did they washed their hands after toilet?

[Tita Iuventia Martia]

Can I have one question? It is about using sponges in the army: Is it true that soldiers have obtained only one stick with a sponge for the contubernium? I personaly think that it is unlikely, because of Romans sense of hygiene. I am almost sure that centurio, optio, signifer etc. had his own sponge, but I am not sure, how it was truly...


Is there anybody, who can help me to find some answers?

thank you all and best regards
