Re-enactment is a hobby that involves the recreation of some aspect of a bygone era and
attracts people/participants of all genders, ages and occupations. This type of activity has
a long history as evidenced by the Roman re-enactment of historic military engagements in
their arenas. Today many modern museums and historical sites employ staff in living
history settings to educate and stimulate the public.
Roman army re-enactors (as role players) typically fabricate their own equipment, dress in
period clothing, seek to experience military camp life in a setting contemporary with the era
in which they have an interest, (inclusive of weapons practice, parade square drill,
execution of camp fatigue duties, etc.), participate in patrols and engage in mock combat
(as depicted in the photographs below).
