Cohors I Gallica

Web page:http://www.cohorsprimagallica.com/

The members of this group are archaeologists who work at Iruña-Veleia (Euskadi) archaeology site, the most outstanding Roman site in Euskadi. This is an area in northern Spain much more romanised than it is usually believed, with important trade ports with the Atlantic coast of Gaul and Britannia.

This group recreates a Late Roman Imperial legionaries unit (IV and V Centuries) and explains the evolution of the Roman army influenced by the barbarian tribes that settled within the borders of the Roman Empire, and also the effect of the new official religion -Christianism.
