  • The Roman military cadence heard in the movie Ben Hur. Ive tried to lengthen it out a bit to the best of my ability, since its not anywhere else to be found(that I know of). Such a shame.

    To think these blokes can march for 40km (25 miles) a day and still make camp.
    And by "camp" I don't mean a simplified tent encampment with a number of tree trunks to serve as palisade. Seeing as the Legions of Rome often spent days in hostile territory, they needed well fortified encampments.
    The legions had surveying teams which went ahead of the army (not too far of course and with support) to find a good spot for encampment; up a hill, near fresh water, and with plenty of space between forests so as to not allow the possible enemy to sneak up on them. Once the encampment was marked out, and the others arrived, they were each given about 25m of wall and ditch to work on. They all carried their tools and already sharpened stakes to serve as extra defense (planting them inside the ditch can serve as a nasty surprise for assaulting enemies). The ditch was built of about 1m deep. The dirt was used to make a rampart, and on top of that they built the fence or barricade. Camp was built, and then the troops could rest.
    That's a few hours manual labour AFTER 40km march whilst carrying roughly 20-30 kgs extra weight of equipment.
    To lead such an army; to be even part of such an army must have been tough but, in a way, very satisfying.

      Post-Republic/Post-Marian reform Roman Legions were perhaps the single most sophisticated, advanced, equipped, trained and qualified armies the world has ever seen.
      Post-Service pensions, Post-service land rights, family support post-service, education and training in physical labors on top of numerical and literary advancement, the Roman Legions were the most cohesive and effective open-ground combat force in history.
      Whilst the rather regimented and somewhat predictable Legion combat tactics were exploited, no military saw such consistent and effective military action.
      On top of this, as stated in the three replies below, they were engineers, siege-craft workers, builders and more, providing labor and work that meant a Legion didn't have to carry an extensive network of independent workers, as well as cutting back the vast supply trains needed with each man able to carry a (somewhat small) number of provisions, personal equipment, and more.
      To the Glory of Rome.

      You have to compare them with their opponents. Unless facing other Romans, the post-Marian legions were hardly ever faced with foes who applied a developed and intellectually considered military doctrine, or were under directive tactical command at all. Even then, the legion could be overcome by forces made up of warriors following their own initiative in exploiting their weapons and the topography and conditions of their own territory. Consider Carrhae, or the Teutoburger wald, or even the Boudiccan or the Jewish revolt, both of which saw legions cut to pieces on the march. But when it came to set-piece battles on neutral or favorable ground, the legions were a meatgrinder that no force of the period - not even the pike phalanx of the later Macedonians - could stop

    >>> 00:55 onwards >>>
    In that picture you see the insignia of the Xth Legion (the one with the "BULL"). That was Caesar's "own Veteran Legion", called "Veneria" at first (because Caesar was supposed to descend from Venus) - later on called "EQUESTRIS" - a name it would carry into the Gallic Wars. It was the hardest - "toughest" Legio of all the Caesar's "Veteran Legions" to the point it became practically a kind of Caesar's "bodyguard" Legion. They did most of the Gallic Campaigns. Julius Caesar knew all the officers PERSONALLY and all the Centurions, too - and treated them almost like friends - he remembered each Centurion, as even many of the veterans by their own name - a thing they LOVED. In each important battle, they'd be held in reserve and only when things turned "ugly" Caesar would unleash them upon his enemies. They NEVER LOOSE one single battle, under his direct command (which wasn't that "easy" because Caesar wasn't the "God Of War" as many think, and often - especially initially - would make many bad decisions - some of them, even potentially catastrophic!). After the Battle of Alesia they and the XIIIth Legio (the one depicted in the famous HBO-series "ROME"), crossed the Rubicon with him and occupied Italy. They were the TRUE "CAESAR'S VETERANS" - not just "Veterans of Gaul" - they also fought in the "Civil Wars" against Pompey and Cato at Pharsalus. Many years later - after Caesar's assassination - the Xth Legio was present in Rome, and many of them participated in Caesar's funeral. Formally under the command of Lepidus, they went marching with Marc-Anthony into Egypt first & the Parthian Empire later on, though they didn't like Marc-Anthony AT ALL - especially after his (brief) "campaign" against the Parths. At the Battle of Anzio (Anthium) - their discomptent towards Marc-Anthony practically "exploded", and they "DE FACTO" deserted, marching - "banners at the wind" - straight into Octavian's camp (who greated them with open arms, afterall). They didn't want to fight for Cleopatra (the "Egyptian witch" or the "Egyptian whore", as many Romans called her) and considered Caius Octavius to be the TRUE "descendent" of Caesar (the "NEW Caesar") and the executioner of Caesar's wil & testament, which (LAWFULLY!) HE WAS - and the man who would restore the "Pax Romana" (which HE DID). After Antium, Octavian kept the Legio and kept its number, as he kept the symbol (the BULL), though changed their name. He had to send home the oldest ones (some of them have been fighting for 25-30 years, and many of them who were - for example 45-50 years old, would have spet most their lifetime in the military! By that point it was a LIFETIME practically - especially considering the average "life expectancy" at those times. The remaining ones were fused with new recruits, from ANOTHER "Xth LEGIO" formed during the "Great Civil Wars" and turned into the "Xth" or "DECIMA LEGIO - GEMINA" (from "gemellum" - "twin"). The Xth "GEMINA" would endure and fight on ALL fronts of the "Limes" for CENTURIES - ALSO (as far as I remember) - they've been used in during the "Great Revolt" in Judea, so it isn't unlikely, you would see them in Jerusalem, at the times the "Ben-Hur" movie depicts, although I cannot be 100% sure of that (I simply don't remember!). This was the "TOP NOTCH" Legion. To get into it, was an EXTREME honour - it was the most famous unit of the whole "ROMAN WAR-MACHINE". One thing I remember FOR SURE - is that after CENTURIES, and before the "Constantinian reforms" - they were given by the Senate the name "INVICTUS" (the Xth was "INVICTUS LEGIO" or "the Legion that was NEVER BEATEN on the Field." YOU TELL ME, GUYS! - SOME History, ha? :) :)

      El Nayzo that comment shows your ignorance: Barbar was referred to anyone outside of Roman border, so once conquered the Barbars stopped being Barbars. Then anyone could get the Roman citizenship by simply serving in the army, so they would be as Roman as someone born in Rome. Also most of the emperor you named were of Roman family, the other half got power through a military coup.

      Caligvla Caesar we will never know who had the best army of the ancient world. Chinese Han Empire was also an almost unmatched superpower in their region. The thing about Rome is they never had to fight organised enemies, mostly loosely connected confederations (even Greece was conquered piece by piece. The only empire they fought was Parthia and they lost to them many times.

      @@dimitris9479 Rome brought peace and civilization to Europe, North Africa and Western Asia, and invented many technology and tools we still use today. The Romans invented and/or greatly improved upon all of the above: Roman numerals, the first news script, modern plumbing and sanitary management, arches in structures, air conditioning, aqueducts, surgical tools, concrete, roads that can withstand time, the codex, western law, better living standards for all, the Julian calendar, apartments, postal service, corvus, testudo formation, grid based layouts, and being pioneers of siege warfare. The Roman Empire defined western government and culture as we know it. In addition to the spread of their language and culture, the romans brought with them a far more centralized government than those of the conquered. Rome also made it possible for ideas and goods to flow from Iberia all the way to the caucuses, which is the main reason Christianity is the major world religion it is today. You can thank the Romans for all of these things. So here’s an idea, maybe you should stop being so ignorant and show some respect and gratitude to the people’s who invented many luxuries we use today, maybe do that instead of vilifying them. Rome is clearly the prototype of Western civilization. Commerce, law, engineering, and at the end Christianity. First, it lasted over 1500 years, not over 1000 years. Recorded history goes back maybe 5,000 years, so the Roman Empire (not the Republic, mind you, the Empire), existed for 30% of recorded history.
      Second, it's written language forms the basis of some of the most widely spoken languages in the world. Pretty much every European language has been directly affected by Latin, and uses the Latinate alphabet.
      Third, it was the Roman Empire that spread Christianity throughout the world. Given that Christianity and Islam are tied together (as Jesus is a prophet in Islam), you could say that the Roman Empire is directly responsible for one of the world's largest religions, and indirectly responsible for the world's other largest religions.
      Fourth, Roman law forms the basis of the judicial system everywhere including England/US/Canada.
      Fifth, pretty much every Western tradition can be tied back to a Roman tradition in ways that no other empire can really match.
      In other words, Rome was more influential than you could possibly imagine. Rome also of course was the longest lasting empire in history by far, lasting 1,500 years like I said. Wow, there you have it. I really hope you take the time to read this. I wrote something like this with the purpose of education. I really hope you can change your mind, and really just think about what I wrote. Also how the Roman army steamrolled Greece like it was nothing. The Macedonian phalanx and Greek armies were no match for the Romans. The Romans influenced the whole world, the alphabet you’re using now proves it. Also if it wasn’t for Russia, Greece would still be under Turkish rule. Have a good day :)

      @@nicola.innocenti first of all this is the internet how do you know these people are Italian. I could be Italian, maybe I'm not, who knows, it's the internet. Secondly after the fall of the Western Roman Empire most of ethnical Romans left for the Byzantine Empire or Eastern Roman Empire. So when I look at modern Italy all I see is Visigoths trying to play Roman. Hell you don't even have the language that the Romans had. Most Italians don't speak Latin they speak Italian which is contained of German words and lazy Latin terms. Languages may change but they don't change their name and the whole base of the language. So I stand by my statement when I say the only thing that Italians have in common with the Romans is the peninsula.

      Romans were silent as opposed to their enemy, when they marched forward in battle formation. Whilst the gauls were rowdy and hurled insults, and expected the romans to shout back, they just marched forward silently. That's how disciplined the legionary was. I'd shit myself as a gaul

      Italians with Roman roots are common only in Lazio, in the rest of Italy they are really hard to find, precisely because of the various influences.
