Roman Military Clothing A.D.200-400 (Men-At-Arms)

by Graham Sumner

Roman Military Clothing A.D.200-400 (Men-At-Arms) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The armour and weapons of the Roman army have long been the subject of intense research and speculation. While much has been published on their arms and armour, however, the actual clothing of Imperial soldiers has largely been overlooked. In this second part of a rigorous study of the literary, sculptural, pictorial and archaeological evidence, the specialist author-artist examines the clues which enable us to attempt reconstructions of items worn by officers and men all over the empire during the two centuries between the reign of Septimius Severus and the twilight years of Stilicho.

Synopsis:

The second in a two-part study, this is an exploration of Roman military clothing from the late Republic to the end of the Empire. It draws upon written, pictorial, sculptural and archaeological sources to reconstruct the appearance of the Roman soldier.
