The standards themselves varied greatly, from the legion's Eagle and imperial portrait image to various cohort signa, flags (vexilla),...

ISBN: 9781472808271 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The birth of the mighty Roman Navy was anchored in the Romans' extraordinary ability to absorb and perfect the technology of other states and empires. Indeed, during the clash of the great Mediterranean powers in the Punic Wars of the 3rd century, Rome had little or no naval force to speak of, just a humble fleet of the tiny Etruscan Aphraktoi, and it was the Carthaginians who reigned supreme at sea.
