The Romans Are Coming!

January 25, 2025 @ 11:00 am, ending 3:00 pm

Join us at the American Heritage Museum on Saturday, January 25th to learn more about ancient Rome, its military and culture with the Legion III Cyrenaica living history group.

Legion III Cyrenaica is a Roman living history organization with membership throughout the New England region. The group researches, reconstructs and presents this historical Legion as it may have appeared in Egypt and later in Syria during the Roman Empire (covering 40-400 AD/CE). The Legion functioned primarily as a military police, based outside Alexandria and manning road stations and watchtowers along the trade roads in the Koptos region.

While the main focus of the group is in the arms, armor and military functions of the Roman Legion, the group also features non-citizen Auxiliary and non-military / civilian aspects.

 

The group regularly presents at the Higgins Armory Collection at Worcester Art Museum, attends several history timeline events in New England), presents to several area schools, colleges, universities, classical studies and classical leagues, and has collaborated with notable Roman archaeologists and scholars, including the Joukowsky Institute at Brown University”
