On the training of gladiators, @GuideGladiator says: "It’s a system called the Tetrad. It’s a four-day split, and it was originally devised by Greek trainers for the Olympics. But it was such a good system that it made its way into the Roman army." outsideonline.com/health/trainin…

The topic of today's @ancientwarfare podcast was 'the most influential weapon in the ancient world’. Panel members made the cases for the Greek pike ('sarissa'), Roman stabbing sword ('gladius'), Roman dagger ('pugio') and spear ('hasta', 'framea'). Which would you choose?

One of the best #Roman history series ever - watched when I was an undergrad, stunned - changed my course of study to ordinary soldiers & people to this day. All the characters were amazing - but soft spots for Niobe, Cleopatra & &@JamesPurefoy's Marc Antony,all so amazing!
Trimontium Trust@TrimontiumTrust

Shout out to #Rome 😍 It really was a fantastic series and one of the most accurate in depicting Roman reliance on the goodwill of the Gods. Vorenus and Pullo forever!!😍 (But Attia was awesome too). Who was your favourite character? @VindolandaTrust @romanpalace
