Today I would like to show Eastern Armored Legio.

Are you surprised to see lorica segmentata?

"Roman Legionary 284-337"

''Their plate armour, the so-called lorica segementata,
may seem anachronistic, but a growing body of finds from late 3rd- and early 4th-century contexts
at Carlisle and León (base of VII Gemina; the legion may have supplied a vexillation to
Constantine’s army), suggest it was still in limited use (Bishop 2013).''

After my long absence I have a suprise before Christmas! :)
