Roman Exhibition in Cologne - 14AD

[jho]

Salvete,

This is just to let you know that a great Roman exhibition in the Römisch-Germanisches Museum Cologne (14AD - Römische Herrschaft am Rhein, 28. June to 19 October 2014) will be opened today.

The exhibits will include lots of Roman military equipment (including more than a dozen helmets and a spectacular phalera), some of which has never been shown to the public before.

For information and some teaser pictures see:

I was there during the first opening day, a very nice exhibition indeed. You can watch at several helmets, gladii, pugiones two amazing pila , stelae and so on.

I left from Rome and it is worth the trip.
