An overview of the panoply of a legionary in the time of the late Roman republic. We discuss all individual items and compare them to the more well-known legionary of the first century Roman empire. We’ll take a close look at iconic items like his gladius, scutum, pilum and pugio and show the sculptures that form the most realistic representation of these items. Before all that, we’ll give some back-ground information and context on the organization and professionalization of the Roman army around the end of the Roman republic, being the first century BC; the time of famous generals like Julius Caesar, Pompey the Great and Marc Anthony.
