Synopsis
The 'eagles' and other standards of ancient Rome's armies were revered as sacred embodiments of the units that carried them, and fulfilled important tactical functions during battle. Throughout the chaotic 3rd Century AD, and the 4th-Century recovery, these roles remained unchanged, but the designs of the standards did evolve under the influence of various cultural changes. Foreign-influenced styles, such as the striking 'dragon' standard with its billowing fabric tail, became more popular; the growing cult of the emperor fuelled the use of imperial portrait images; and from AD 312, the adoption of Christianity by the Emperor Constantine introduced new Christian symbolism to military standards. Meanwhile, the appearance of standard-bearers also evolved, responding to developments in helmets and armour, and an increased 'barbarization' of the army's personnel. This fascinating book draws widely on literary and iconographic sources to identify, explain and illustrate these changes, and reconstructs them in dazzling new colour plates featuring Late Roman soldiers and their standards. Book jacket., This book draws upon the latest research to identify, explain, and illustrate the standards used by the Roman armies of the Late Empire., This book draws upon the latest research to identify, explain, and illustrate the standards used by the Roman armies of the Late Empire. The Late Roman Empire was a period of significant change in the designs of standards and in the costumes of standard-bearers. During the middle decades of the chaotic 3rd century, evidence confirms the continued use of the old legionary eagle and the signa of the old cohorts and centuries, alongside flags and Imperial images. The two major trends over the later generations were the adoption of Christian symbols on standards (e.g. Constantine the Great's Chi-Rho ), and the proliferation of different types of flags. This had begun in the late 2nd century with the adoption of the "barbarian" dragon standard, the windsock-shaped draco , which continued to be displayed, alongside various other flags in the Greek-speaking Eastern Empire, whose influence increased greatly. Meanwhile, the growing employment of foreign units was such that by the 5th century we have evidence of the use of Hunnic symbolism among a Roman general's suite of standards. The costumes of standard-bearers also evolved as "Persian" styles spread from Constantinople. This title explores all these changes in depth, charting the development of various costumes and designs and the waxing and waning influence of various cultures and religious considerations. The text is supported by specially commissioned illustrations and artist's reconstructions of the standards and their bearers.
