Perseus Digital Library American Philological Association The Stoa Ancient Atlas Maps and Geography of the Ancient World Ancient History traditionally starts with the Fertile Crescent (from modern Iraq to Egypt) and focuses mainly on the Mediterranean. To the people in this area, most of the globe was unknown. Most of the "known world" follows a band north, south, and east of the Mediterranean Sea. You may need to play detective to find the map you're looking for. Ancient maps of Rome (or the Roman Empire) include much of what we think of as Europe, parts of Asia, and Northern Africa. You'll find an alphabetical list of ancient places based on the Roman historian Tacitus: Geographical Index of Tacitus. If I'm missing something or if you have a correction, please let me know.

Roman Army Part I The Roman Army in the Late Republic and Early Empire NB: Over the centuries, the Roman army changed and developed, and conditions often differed somewhat depending on the provinces where the troops were fighting and stationed. The following information is intended to give a generic picture of military organization, armor, weaponry, etc. during the late Republic and early Empire. LEGIONS (legio): The legion was the basic unit of Rome's standing army of career soldiers, the legionaries, who were all Roman citizens and fought primarily as foot-soldiers (infantry). Though the exact numbers of men in a legion varied, the basic pattern of organization remained the same. A Modern “Legion”: British Schoolchildren Visit a Roman Fort CAMPS (castra): As Josephus notes, the Roman camps were always constructed according to a set pattern, laid out like a city bisected by two streets leading to four gates. STANDARDS(signa): Sources Barbara F.

Roman Names There are indications that in the ancient times Romans possessed only one name like the most Indo-European peoples. By the Republican period of the Roman history, a stable naming system, called „tria nomina“ developed and was actively used. The full name consisted of a praenomen, a nomen gentilicium and a cognomen. For girls on the eighth day after birth and for boys on the ninth, the praenomen was given formally, though, according to the custom of Quintus Mucius Scaevola the official listing of the name of the girl would only occur on the day of her marriage and for the boy on the day of assumption of the toga virilis, at the age of 16-17. The Roman praenomina must have once been very numerous. However, it was gradually reduced to 15-20. Two most often encountered Roman praenomina Marcus and Gaius are derived from the god Mars, the legendary father of the founders of Rome Romulus and Remus, and Gaea, the Earth Goddess. Cognomina only appear in public documents at the time of Sulla.
