Greek encampment
#15
Reading decriptions in Xenophon's anabasis.
Tents were made to be lived in.
The dog tent as a concept from late roman images is very convenient
for an individual to carry about, but for campaigns with greeks?
But while for modern day reenactment they look primitive enough to be convincing.
there are descriptions of an actual ancient tent I have seen which is quite elaborate,
so there would possibly be a vast variety of tents according to each station in society, I think.
I can sleep in one of those comfortably, but to live for a period of time, I choose my conteburnium tent!
Visne partem mei capere? Comminus agamus! * Me semper rogo, Quid faceret Iulius Caesar? * Confidence is a good thing! Overconfidence is too much of a good thing.
