Ah..found it! :lol: seek, and thou shalt find and all that :oops:
We are depicting 2C Batavian auxiliaries, a foriegn section of Peronis' gang.
I read once an opinion that the Germanic peoples used a lot of checked or even
striped material. Don't remember where, and it was a long time ago, but it stuck in my head because i remember thinking how little there was used by re-enactors ( i was doing 'the vike' at the time..). Well,
anyway, as i understand things, auxiliaries are sometime shown wearing what is described as native clothing in sculptures and so on. If they did wear their own clothing i was wondering if i might be able to use checked cloth? Even if they didn't use a
lot, they might have used some, if it existed, of course.
Any opinions/suggestions at all on the day to day clothing of auxiliaries would be most welcome
