Future news about Roman Archaeology to be published to Roman Times

In an effort to simplify my publishing life, I am consolidating this blog with my primary blog, Roman Times. All future news about archaeological discoveries of Roman civilization will henceforth be published on Roman Times. For those of you that follow this blog, I urge you to subscribe to Roman Times instead. Thanks for your interest! - Mary

Artist/Historian George S. Stuart creates Marius' Mule for New York collector

In addition to creating figures for museum exhibition, artist historian George S. Stuart also produces commissioned figures for serious collectors. One of his collectors requested this figure of a Roman legionary serving in the legions under the command of Gaius Marius. Marius is recognized for totally restructuring the Roman Army and introducing new training regimens. He changed the army from a voluntary militia to a professional force, allowing men from all classes of Roman society to join and make a career of military service. See a full length view of this amazingly detailed figure at the Gallery of Historical Figures!
