I have added to my blog pictures and descriptions of a Roman watchtower and a Germanic house.
Dioramas 1:18 Rom started to fortify its frontier with Germania after one of its biggest military defeats when three legions were wiped out in a single battle in the year 9 AD. A docu-drama of the so-called Varus battle can be seen on Youtube. I searched the Internet for designs and pictures of reconstructed Roman watchtowers and Germanic houses and the outcome can be seen on my blog now. For purpose of comparison of size I have posted a GI Joe figure in some pictures. |

The XVII, XVIII and XIX legions were never reformed, and Roman expansion into Germania was effectively checked. |
