EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures Private Marcomanni (5) in all his glory, clad in a checkerboard tunic and holding his shield with pride. The crown atop his head is a symbol of the ancient practice of wearing one before going into battle, showcasing the fierce determination of this warrior.
The Marcomanni were a formidable tribe that lived between the Rhine and Danube rivers, known for their bravery and skill in combat. They joined forces with the Moravian Quadi (6) to launch an attack against the Romans, demonstrating their loyalty and strength as allies.
In contrast, the Quadi is depicted wearing armor that completely covers their body, harkening back to ancient times when protection on the battlefield was paramount. The intricate details of their attire speak to a rich history of warfare and tradition among these ancient peoples.
This hand-colored copper engraving from "Images historiques des costumes des principaux peuples de l'Antiquite et du Middle Ages" by Robert Von Spalart offers a glimpse into the past, capturing the essence of these warriors in stunning detail. It serves as a reminder of the courage and resilience displayed by those who fought bravely in battles long ago.
