I just watched an old mini series made in 1981 "Masada" with Peter O'toole,Peter Strauss and Anthony Quayle. I am not knowledgeable about Roman uniforms so I can't comment on their accuracy but it wasn't bad although IMDB picked out a few faults the main one that might interest people on this site is
'Anachronisms: At approximately 23 minutes in, we get a close-up of an obvious modern fiberglass bow covered in what appears to be black electrical tape.'
