Graham,
As you know, based on some left over pigments, a reconstruction was done using what is thought to be the colors on the Prima Porta statue.
The same was done with the centurion Marcus Caelius (website: www.livius.org ). According to that reconstruction the tunic is green. Now would you consider this to be a "wrong" reconstruction, wishful thinking?
