Roman Legionary Aquila

The eagle, also known as an aquila, was an extremely important symbol in Ancient Rome as it was the standard for the Legion. Carried by a distinguished warrior, each legion would have owned a standard like the Roman Legionary Aquila. This iconic symbol was fiercely protected by the Roman military, and to lose a standard meant dire consequences. This solid brass eagle stands majestically atop a brass sphere, its wings spread as if midflight. Twisted gold bars extend from either side of the sphere, giving you a place to hold the standard when it is off of its pole. Every feather of this Roman Legionary Aquila is intricately carved, making it a stunning and very special piece for your Roman warrior reenactments.
