Roman legionaries were among the most effective troops of antiquity. Their training included endurance runs, cutting and stabbing exercises with wooden swords (gladius), and throwing spears (pilum). They often practiced together in units (maniples or cohorts) to train formation and discipline. The equipment included a helmet (galea), chainmail (lorica hamata) or plate armor (lorica segmentata), a shield (scutum), and sandals (caligae). Children grew up in this environment with stories of bravery and solidarity. Knightly games, competitions, and camp life fostered camaraderie and physical fitness. Legionaries traveled for decades through Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East, building roads, forts, and settlements. Their traces can still be found today in ruins and mosaics.
