Have you seen the film? I ask only because I am having an argument with a collegaue over the costumes and uniforms worn by the Romans in the film...he states these uniforms and the body armour are historically and culturally inaccurate. Is this true? I do not know one way or the other.
thanks

Based on reliefs on various monuments as well as artistic renditions the uniforms/armor looked quite authentic. Maybe we have a professional archeologist or Roman historian on the board who will respond to this.
The uniforms etc. are certainly subject to artistic license but were definitely within the parameters of what I would expect.
