There is another one; Cnaeus Musius, eagle bearer of the 14th, appears to be wearing a dagger horizontally on his right side (but the hilt is to the front). Reconstruction artists, for some reason, prefer to show it as a sword hanging vertically, but that's evidently not what is being portrayed on the stone.

Where is this image? I have used the horizontal carry ad nausium for a few years now, easier to get to, and doesn't damage my scale....
