Description
New archaeological research has resulted in a complete re-evaluation of the dress and equipment of the Centurions of the Roman World.
Featuring up-to-date research, photographs of artefacts and the signature Men-at-Arms artwork, Raffaele D'Amato's concise yet detailed text is an essential addition to the series and includes several artwork reconstructions of actual named individuals and two lavish scenes depicting combat between Centurions and a Triumphal procession.
This is a detailed glimpse into the weapons, equipment and uniforms worn by Roman Centurions from the Roman Kingdom right through to the height of the Republic.
