Basic kit for 5th century infantry?

[Robert Vermaat]

I would like to start with a very basic kit for a 5th century infantry "tiro" (is that word used even in the 5th century?).

What I need? Where should I start looking for informations? Which part of the equipment I should try to make myself and which I should expect to buy?

Roman? Non-Roman?

Make yourself:
Tunic (easy!).
Belt (simple, sometimes even modern ones can be adapted easily).
Spearshaft.
Shield.

Trousers are a bit in-between. making them yourself is possible of course, but if you can ask someone it's better than buy them, But Thorsberg trousers are sold, too.

Buy:
Spearhead.
Shoes (better that way).
Shoeld boss.
