guy Posted July 3 Report Share Posted July 3 (edited) Four scales from a type of armor called lorica squamata were found at Roma Magna (Cavoran) near Hadrian’s Wall. A previous post discussed a reassembled lorica squamata from Turkey (see below). Quote Lorica Squamata was generally worn by auxiliary infantry, but can also be seen on Roman depictions of signiferes (standard bearers), aeneatores, centurions, and cavalry troops. https://www.heritagedaily.com/2024/07/major-findings-at-roman-magna-excavation/152509 Location of Carvoran Roman fort (Magna) in Northumberland near Hadrian’s Wall Edited July 3 by guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
