Good evening gentlemen,
My name is Augustine & I am from the United States although I can claim decent to Malavita. Near the ancient Roman city of Croton in the modern province of Calabria. I read and ponder about my ancestral homeland and wish to one day to go there and revere what the ancients left behind. I am very interested in ancient coinage and have established a very small, but proud none the less, collection of some Roman and Celtic coins. Unfortunately, I have only been to Arabia Petraea of the Roman Empire; a province on the outskirts of the empire. I visited Petra, which was profound I loved the experience. Which perhaps fueled my interest in ancient history. Although I wished to visit Bosra; the provincial capital, due to modern conflicts and the civil war it was not recommended to proceed North.
I have read many posts here on Roman Army Talk and envy your knowledge on the topic of ancient history and warfare. I wish to further my knowledge whilst I am here and perhaps I'd like to pursue a course of the matter in University.
Thank you for reading my post and I look forward to getting to know you.
