Who Were the Scouts of the Roman Army?
Full video: • Meet Rome's Scouts - Special Forces o... featuring Veteres Milites
This live history documentary brings to life the activities of a Roman Scout mission. We begin with an overview of Rome's ancient intelligence services, composed of three layers: the procursatores, exploratores, and speculatores. We then recreate a possible scout mission carried out along the Roman frontier of the Rhine. Here, a scout mission prepares to explore the potential route of the main army, seeking to march out into the lands of Germania.
