The Roman army was the most organized and best trained army throughout the
Ancient World. This advantage allowed the Romans to control virtually all the
territory of the world known in those times: the whole Mediterranean coast,
the greater part of Central Asia, North Africa to the extent of the desert, all Europe
through the Rhein and the Danube in the east and Britain in the north-west.
Generally, the Roman legionaries were equipped with short double-edged swords:
Gladiuses and javelins: Pila. The special role of a legionary's weapon played a shield:
although pretty ponderous it was rectangular in shape and during sieges soldiers
could draw up in a tortoise-like formation called a Testudo or “tortoise” formation.
In the closed Testudo, the front row of legionaries placed their shields in front of them,
soldiers in the middle placed their shields over their heads and the flank soldiers
completed the tortoise on the left and the right flanks respectively. This arrangement
formed a very solid protective turtle-shell of shields. In such a formation legionaries
were practically invulnerable to arrows and javelins.
