It is on that side: http://jjwargames.blogspot.com/2016/02/caerleon-and-national-roman-legion.html, and here the 22. It Shows Roman soldiers doing their Training in the amphitheatre. I guess it was made by Peter Connolly.<br />Have a good vacation, and thanks for the answer<br />ChrisAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02227141359494522970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591229843590982581.post-26383361293622542372018-06-08T01:54:14.088-07:002018-06-08T01:54:14.088-07:00Ah yes, I think you mean John Banbury's superb...Ah yes, I think you mean John Banbury's superb illustration of the amphitheatre in Caerleon in its 'heyday'. I believe I found that in the guide we bought at the National Roman Army Museum in the town and I believe he has done other similar work illustrating the development of the army fortress at that time.<br /><br />I am away on holiday, so don't have my books at hand to confirm that definitely<br /><br />Hope that helps<br />JJcarojonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11826580638291659193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591229843590982581.post-36672590248311193312018-06-06T22:39:40.185-07:002018-06-06T22:39:40.185-07:00Hello

I'm sorry I'm not sure which picture you are referring to as I have not used one depicting legionaries in the amphitheatre.<br /><br />Perhaps you could tell me the number of the picture starting from the top of the post.<br /><br />cheers<br />JJcarojonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11826580638291659193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591229843590982581.post-23043851582179355802018-05-27T15:27:06.540-07:002018-05-27T15:27:06.540-07:00Good day

Yes the illustration seemed to give a vivid impression of the look of the Celtic peoples and the burial ritual of depositing the person with grave goods was not unusual as the many items displayed in the post were found in burial mounds with cremation pots.<br /><br />I see that this picture shows a chariot or light carriage being placed with the body and I remember seeing a similar burial if on a grander scale in Cyprus with a king buried with a chariot and four horses which were killed for the occasion.carojonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11826580638291659193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591229843590982581.post-82447270208432976012015-12-02T06:19:01.383-08:002015-12-02T06:19:01.383-08:00Fantastic tour through the museum, Jonathan.
