Hello
I am curious about the amount of deviation between shield emblems found in the Roman Army during the Imperium. I have seen countless books, videos, models, etc depicting the lighting bolts but of late I have seen other depictions such as a Capricorn on the Legio XIV GMV or a Wreath on II Adiutrix (I believe it was them I saw).
Just curious but was there a lot of variety amongst the emblems of legionaires shields during this time period?
Thank you
