Roman/SCA Latin Motto
#1
So what would a good translation of:<br>
<br>
"If it wasn't for us, your wouldn't be here!"<br>
<br>
Something we could fit on a 2*3 foot banner... for those SCA types that criticise Romans as "outside our period".... <p>Rusty Myers<br>

Have to make a stab at it, but no idea exactly how a Roman would phrase it. And, trying to use Latin syntax.<br>
<br>
maybe 'if we had not been, you would never be"?<br>

Maybe something like:<br>
<br>
non fueramus numquam fueritis<br>
<br>
but that is future perfect and I'll check on that. <p>Legio XX<br>
