the 10th legion Fretensis–Antoniniana in Jerusalem
#3
I am seeking confirmation that the 10th Legion stationed in Britain was withdrawn along with Dutch Units to be sent to Jerusalem to augment soldiers there for the Jewish Wars (?) and sent to Rome to be reconstituted before continuing to Jerusalem with army veterans and families granted lands in Abruzzo (Cafus brothers Senators were advocates for this Roman G.I. benefit). Capital of Abruzzo region named AQUILA (Eagle, Roman Eagle on standards). Seeling to validate hearsay as justification for obvious Nordic coloration of current population in that region...blond,, redhead, blue and green eyes etc. [email protected]
