LEGIO
VIII AUGUSTA, MGV |
LEGIO
VI VICTRIX - THE ANTONINE GUARD |
|
Based in North Wales and environs,
this is a dedicated bunch of re-enactors who recreate first
century military and civilian life to a very high standard. They are
a great group to work with, which is why the 14th is often to be seen
in their company! |
|
Britain's
most Northerly Roman re-enactment society, the Antonines have gone
from strength to strength in the few short years since their foundation.
They show immense dedication in everything they do - travelling hundreds
of miles to attend events - and their Gask ridge march looks like
becoming an important annual experience. |
COHORS
I FIDA VARDULLORUM,
(Colchester Roman Society)
|
COHORS
QUINTA GALLORUM |
|
Originally a legionary group, these lads now
specialise in the often neglected but actually vital auxiliary arm
of the Roman military - specifically a milliary cohort of Vardulli
from Hispania. They have a good new website with some links
that are well worth following. |
|
Based at the impressively restored fort at Arbeia
(South Shields) this auxiliary unit recreates military and civilian
life on the Wall in the 3rd century AD - and it does so with great
enthusiasm and remarkable accuracy. 3rd century kit makes an interesting
change to standard 1st century fare whilst the group's civilian side
is especially strong |
