Crikey! Is the Archeon still serving ham and cheese rolls? Probably the same frozen ones I had in 94! :o

Aaaah, cool, what a picture.
No Usurpation from our side next year.... this is a promise. Tongue
I never try the same joke twice, but i have some very good ideas for next year.

@Andreas: Shall i bring some Erdnuss-Flippies to Fort Vechten. :mrgreen:

And, oh our beloved Empress, i would be honored to serve as imperial guardsman (schola is well payed i guess)

Hi Caius here, I noticed that at least two of the guys there at Archeon were wearing Aux E , Are these two 3rd century types or were they wearing very old helms for the period ie" Late Roman" After all this is advertised as a late Roman event. I dont mean to be critical just curious. Needless to say you guys look great by the way very sharp. Cheers Caius Thom R

The Late Roman period starts at the 3rd century, specially in its economic crisis. Although, this is all arbitrary... :wink:

Ivan is correct. We think of the 'Late Roman' period as starting halfway the 3rd c. when things begin to change. besides that, 3rd c. equipment was certainly in use in the early 4th c.

Well, finally, and with text having to be added later, I have finished the gallery of the Late Roman event: http://www.fectio.org.uk/shows/archeon2006.htm

I'm still awaiting promised material from the Batavi and I Germanica (pictures from Sat and Sun), so these days are to be filled up soon I hope!

So far, about 130 pictures.
