Often, gladiators would focus on armoring the half of themselves that would be in more direct danger than the other half. It is likely due to cost reasons. I assume the same principle is being applied here, but I honestly don't know, and could be wrong.
I think it might be historical. You would extend only your strong leg foreward the other leg would be behind you so why wear 2 greaves if the other would just be extra weight
You can even see the reason in this video. With greaves on both legs, you can not knee down so good and fight off cavalry. It is also just another kg less of equitment to wear in battle and cheaper.
Looks great, but the padding wouldn't be made from leather, rather linen. I also have a feeling that the man who wore it and was wielding those arm did it for the first time. Give him a proper roman drill and he would be fine:)
What's remarkable is how much of that equipment would remain fundamentally relevent for the nearly 2 millenia. I seem to recall it was perhaps Charles Oman who pointed out that the primary evolution of the hauberk/habergeon was that the sleaves grew progressively longer...
Because it protects the one leg that is vulnerable in combat. But the equipment shown here is just the standard. Since citizens in the Consular Legions of the Republic had to provide their own equipment, every Triarii who could afford it could also buy protection for both legs.
It means something like “Coming from Spain”. This refers to the fact that the Romans adopted the short sword of the Spanish Celtiberians and developed their gladius from it.
@@CANNONusmchispaniensis was the first type of gladius romans used, adopting it from Carthaginians troops. Carthaginians adopted it from Iberians, who developed it by hybridizing the Celtic La Tene B sword with the Iberian sword
@fbwarprider4137 Out standing! I Really appreciate you responding and answering my questions. You are very knowledgeable, And I can't thank you enough for the knowledge drop.
The standard equipment only provides for a single leg protector. Namely for the foot that is leaned forward. But since all soldiers in the Conular Armies of the Republic had to provide and pay for their own equipment, every Tirarii who could afford it could also buy leg protectors for both legs.
Imagine if you could bring back a real legionnaire or a real gladiator with a Time Machine, he would eat this guy for breakfast. I respect how they keep history alive but not one movement and strike seems natural.
@@darwinism8181 Nope. There is no ''because over thousands of years of history'' , cause Triario only existed until Gaius Marius military reforms. Overall only thier shields changed during this time.
Did triarii from early republic era use gladius? And was it called gladius hispanus? I always assumed Romans picked it up later during Punic Wars they happen to fight in Spain 😂 on the other hand he's wearing chainmail which was adopted from Celts in Northern Italy. So this is after Punic Wars and before Guy Marius reform in Sulla time period.

J’adore le bouclier.
The crounching posture is to brace against cavalry charges or defend agaist projectiles?
Is wearing just one greave historical, or was your mate just borrowing the other one?

@@sampier3632 this dude is not a frickin gladiator, no gladiatror wwhuld even be allowed to have a shield or a hamata.
do more of these
J’adore ! 😍
My man all dressed up, and no one to fight...
Wohhoo nice npc movement, lets me focus on the clothes and armor, greetings from Austria 🎉
Ave triarius! Defensor rei publicae!

Las botas cerradas, tampoco son correctas.
Que gracia me hace leer comentarios de gente que no es de Roma y que pretende ensenarle historia de Roma a los romanos 😂
Farete anche il velite?
Cool😮

What an honor it would be the serve the Republic, the greatest state in human history!
You'd be a slave, buddy
That is not a Galea, is it now?
Love this
Why is there a grieve only on one knee?

This helmet remind me of tf2 soldier 😂
hello fellow tf2 enjoyer! 💪🏼

What is "Hispaniensis"?
It means something like “Coming from Spain”. This refers to the fact that the Romans adopted the short sword of the Spanish Celtiberians and developed their gladius from it.
WHY THERE IS NO OCREA FOR THE LEG BEHIND????
because they dont use them in the formation, right leg always behind, left leg front with shield
@@thewitch-king8009that's what I thought.
@@thewitch-king8009 right okay thx
Is it me or is that gladius really long?
Yes it is long, it is a gladius hispaniensis
@fbwarprider4137 got ya, Is that typical for what you are portraying? Or ablibed for content?
@@CANNONusmchispaniensis was the first type of gladius romans used, adopting it from Carthaginians troops. Carthaginians adopted it from Iberians, who developed it by hybridizing the Celtic La Tene B sword with the Iberian sword
@@CANNONusmc the gladius in the video is a replica based on archeological findings

I wanna play dress up too
Bello
Weirdest sword unsheathing I’ve ever seen
It is the only way to unsheath it with one hand on the same side if the other hand holds the shield
Most unsheathing you've seen is not in any way practical in a formation, where there is expected to be guys extremely close to your left and right.
Logistics ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I was hoping for an italo-corinthian helmet, they look so sexy
🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
God I love the gladius so much
Did the other guy have leather bracelets???
Dont think the gladius were that hard to unsheathe
Let me see your real war face!
I don't think the helmet is any type of Galea. If it is which type is it? My suggestion is than of the types of Attic helmets favoured by Romans.
This is what adults do with adult money, if and when they get adult money.
I thought greaves were on both legs.
The standard equipment only provides for a single leg protector. Namely for the foot that is leaned forward. But since all soldiers in the Conular Armies of the Republic had to provide and pay for their own equipment, every Tirarii who could afford it could also buy leg protectors for both legs.

Damn boyz , someone finally got it right.
Tired of depicting Rome legionnary just by 1 image , while there are 1000+ years of history
....but he didn't get it right, because over thousands of years of history there were radically more changes than shown here?
Fake romebros annoy me.

Non erano 3 le piume??
My dumbass thought the only greave he brought goes to the non shielded leg. Damn budget cuts. The roman army isnt what it used to be
Why only one ocrea?
Por causa da formação, só uma perna ficava na frente, a outra ficava atrás
круто

Please stop moving. Stand at attention like a real soldier.
Good lord this guy is a goober
lets be honest you would do the same if you had the chance
@laisphinto6372 what, pretend to be an avatar ? No thanks
Not a gladius, is a spatha.
Wrong, it is the first type of gladius, the hispaniensis, with a blade lenght of 62 cm
