Well worth clicking on the links.

I think it's the first time I've seen legionaires with beards?

Which arch (I assume it's from one) are those from, Alex? I think I remember having seen that relief before, but can't place it.  :)

It's one of those (Aelian/Antonine) reliefs re-used for the arch of Constantine: LINK (http://faculty.cua.edu/pennington/churchhistory220/lectureone/Arch%20of%20Constantine/ArchConstantineRectangels4.jpg).
