Spectaculum Romanum at Rimburg - Marcus Mummius - 08-22-2008

Salvete,

Last weekend a Roman event was held at Rimburg and Ubach-Palenberg. The weather was nice and over the weekend there were 20.000 visitors. A big succes.

Legio XI CPF (Belgium) was one of the groups present. Alas several of our soldiers were ill. But even with the small turn out we had a lot of fun.

Here are some pictures of my group taken last weekend:

For the first time ever at a public event we were allowed to dig a ditch! It's a fairly small one (only about 1m deep), but still, we got to dig a ditch Big Grin !

Charging the public is always fun. Most of them are unarmed Big Grin

Too much vinum isn't good for you:

Our cooks made a lot of Roman food for the public to try:

Another part of our cooking display. People absolutely loved the Roman tid bits they could taste. Most of the ceramics were made for us by RAT member Andreas Gobinus.
