Last fall, I took a world history class. My college's world history professor was very knowledgeable, especially concerning antiquity. One day he explained the importance of the Aquila to the legions. After class, I asked him why no Aquilas have been excavated. He couldn't give me a straight answer. So, I would like to hear everyone's opinions. Why have there never been any Eagles discovered? They were of massive importance to the Romans, and we knew their enemies understood their significance as well...
Opinions? :?
