The Bethlehem Revisited program provides arms (spears) and outfits for reenactors who are participating in the event. For us Romans, that means a tunic and a helmet. But if you want to look more like a First-century legionnaire, you need more.

  • Arms
    • A gladius sword is every legionnaire’s friend
    • The pugio is a dagger that’s both a tool and weapon
    • Pilum (spears) are the primary distance weapon
