Legio XX Valeria Victrix, by Steve Malone
Steve Malone, a practicing archaeologist, has created a superb site
devoted especially to perhaps the most famous of the Imperial legions --
Britain's Legio XX Valeria Victrix. Well-referenced
to sources and epigraphic evidence, this site is a must-see for anyone
beginning an inquiry into the colorful history of this frequently
misunderstood unit.

Roman Army Pages, by Sander van Dorst
Undoubtedly one of the Web's most content-filled sites on the Roman
military, especially for information regarding the armies of the
Principate and Dominate. Thoroughly researched and academically
credible articles discuss facets of army organization, careers, unit
development, and equipment. A first-rate resource.

Britannia, by Peter Green
A comprehensive and elegantly designed clearinghouse of
information relating to the Roman army in Britain. Includes a unique
'gazetteer' of Roman military sites in the U.K., an introduction to the soldiers and
units of the army, a useful bibliography, and a subsite for the
Roman Gask Project, which is a project to study the fort systems of the
northern Roman frontiers in Britain.

The Roman Army, by Gary Brueggeman
A rich collection of graphical analyses of Roman
military formations, the physics of missile projectiles such as ballista shot and javelins,
the organization of the army on the march, and considerably
more. Without images, the site would be very dry indeed and difficult to
grasp, but the CAD-created diagrams are heaven-sent and open up a world of imagined battle.

Roman Britain, by Guy de la Bedoyere
Useful assortment of resources, links, and texts relating
to the history
and epigraphy of the Romans in Britain, peripherally including the military.
Content includes a collection of inscriptions adapted from Roman Inscriptions of Britain (RIB), a directory of inscriptions
containing references to Roman deities, and epigraphic evidence related to the
Roman army.
