The soldiers of the legion were picked men: They were all Roman citizens and received a higher pay than the auxiliary troops - that is, foreigners who serve with the Roman army.A legion consisted of heavily armoured infantry (foot soldiers). The Roman infantry became a feared force, well disciplined and well trained. The Romans were very careful about their camps - no Roman army halted for a single night without digging a trench and fortifying its camp. Each soldier took his share in establishing the camp and striking the camp the next day. This Roman Legion's Dagger measures a total of 13 1/2in. The 7 1/2" stainless steel blade also bears the marks of SPQR. Comes with brown marbles sheathe.
