Hi you all!

From june 22th to 24th, and specially june 23th, will take place the International Reenactment of the Battle of Lake Trasimene. The place: the village of Tuoro sul Trasimeno in Italy; the groups: Decima Legio (Roman Republican from Italy), Athenea Promakhos (Carthaginian heavy infantry), Evocati Apri Scipioni (Roman Republican), Iboshim (Carthaginian heavy and light infantry) and Ibercalafell (Iberian heavy and light infantry)...

Hope see some of you there!

Hopefully someone can take photos and/or video and post them up. And, we'll hope you don't have a repeat of the earthquake that allegedly also happened during the Battle of Lake Trasimene.

It's always interesting to see someone do a Punic War battle! As someone whose particular interests lies in the period of the Second Punic to Numantine Wars, I'm eagerly awaiting the photographs.

As to the earthquake... di meliora! They've just had one, if someone further north, in Italy!

Yes, please do post pictures and video!
I wish I could be apart of these things, as the period fascinates the more I learn of each period!
All periods have atheir own aspects of interest for me, this being one of many!
I look forward to seeing it!

Wink My mother says the same!! Thank you, Ben!
I hope you'll meet there Eduardo Guillen (from Athenea Promakhos), Javier García (from Evocati Apri Scipioni), Georgina Castells (From Ibercalafell) and Giuseppe Cascarino (from Decima Legio)

Main battle will be on saturday, but some other activities will be presented during that memorable day.
Probably, this year's edition will see around 50 reenactors... but next one!! Something great is being prepared, friends of the Republican period, named VIA ANNIBALICA. If we can finally find financial supporters, the whole Second Punic War will return soon.

I'll keep you informed.
