We Assembled Incredibly Rare Roman Legionary Armour Found In Europe

In 2017, the oldest and most complete set of Roman armour was unearthed in Kalkriese, Germany. Roughly 2,000 years old, it is one of the greatest examples of Roman military equipment ever discovered, we know it as the lorica segmentata. Consisting of 40 sheets of iron fastened together with leather and buckles, it’s the iconic type of armour that we associate with Roman legionaries today.
