Die römishe Reiterei am Limes (The Roman Cavalry on the Limes)Description
Zwischen Patrouille und Parade provides an overview of the historical development and the role of the Roman cavalry. Gravestones reveal the cavalry soldiers' histories and stories. The weapons and equipment discussed are sourced from the Württemberg State Museum, Stuttgart, supplemented by extensive loans from the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Austria, and Germany. In the border provinces of the Roman Empire on the Rhine and Danube, cavalry was considered one of the most important factors in Roman power politics. Speed and long range made them indispensable not only in war, but also in peace-time, such as patrolling the border zone.Category
