The Roman legionnaries were supposed to have founded a city in China called Li-Gien. I can't remember all the details right now, but last year I did quite a bit of looking up on the subject. The claims, as I remember were in a few case quite tenuous, though on a couple of matters of construction they seemed to have a point, I'll see if I can look that up later if anyone's interested.<br>

On the subject of these soldiers, a book was written by Andre Norton and Susan Schwartz called "The Empire of the Eagle" it starts off quite well, but then the fantasy takes over so it's not really for people who are just into the history of the period. <p>Veni Vidi Bibi</p><i></i>
