Education

Romans Ireland Educational Program

For Schools, Colleges and Community projects. We offer a Schools and College service which can be of benefit to
those who are interested in bringing History to Life, We portray Roman Civilian and Military Life and can impart
information with regard to the SOCIETY, Military structures and equipment used at that time.

All of the objects used are quite often based on archeological findsand museum replicas.

This is particularly true of the weapons and armor of the Roman Legionary. and Auxilia.

Our Senator who portrays a member of the aristocratic class, is attired appropriately with Toga and upper status footwear, and can discuss aspects of Roman law, Language tradition, Religion, and custom, he also holds a degree in Greek and Roman History from U.C.C.

Our typical school or college visit consists of a demonstration of Imperial Roman Army Drill; the commands are given in Latin. This display also includes the swearing of the oath to the “EMPEROR” again in Latin. All the soldiers in the Legion
normally gave this oath once a year.

In some circumstances we can also show a Roman religious ceremony, with offerings to “ Jupiter’ the chief God of Rome,
To the “Local Gods of this place ‘ and to Mars the God of War. This ceremony we believe was often performed prior to going into battle.

The Program includes also, a question and answer session with the students; the parameters for this session are usually set in advance in consultation with the staff of the College or school. We are also available for many other types of Educational, Historic, or indeed local events.
