Is important to note many things:
1.-There is not Races, there is only one Homo Sapiens Sapiens, all diferences are somatological types into ONE and only ONE race
2.- The nordic types were always more taller and stronger than another europeans but this is not an "superiority manifestation"
3.- Some sources tell us about the roman soldiers with 1.70m. but archaeology show us another thing,just look on a museum an roman "Panoplia" are very thiny in comparation with modern standars
4.- Roman soldiers do not eat too much meat because the belief of a relation between meat and a bad attitude or a agressive attitude, eat just a little no more, and becasue were very expensive too feed an so large army on so many fronts ...
5.-Germanic peoples eat a lot of meat and old beer (Not Ale or Pilsener i though) eat a lot of bread and cereals, were healthy but no so healthy as today, there is a lot of desseases and only the stronger survive
6.- The city life on roman times were horrible, a city were not exactly a clean place, manypoor people living together, with no a good diet, surviving on little spaces, on the "barbarian" towns the people had more space and were no so large population to feed and to keep healthy.....as today when i see city peoples and healthy farmers...but is very subjetive, on the field many people are sick and died young ....on roman times there is not a "magical formula" to a good way to :wink: live
