Description
Roman Army Units in the Eastern Provinces (1) 31 BC-AD 195 by Raffaele D'Amato The Roman Empire's Eastern provinces were the site of numerous brutal conflicts, including the conquest of Dacia and the suppression of the Great Revolt in Judea. In these wars, Roman soldiers faced diverse climates and terrains, from deserts to islands in the eastern Mediterranean. This book examines the variation of equipment and uniforms among different military units and those stationed in various regions of the Empire. Using recent archaeological finds as evidence, it provides a vivid portrait of Roman army units in the Eastern provinces during the first two centuries of the Imperial period. Full-color artwork brings this subject to life, offering insight into the evolution of Roman military attire and equipment over time.
