LEGIO IX HISPANA


The lose legion, the mistery for all of historians and archeologists of the world.

The ninth was a Legion of the great army of the ancient Rome, created by Pompeyo, at the 1st century BC, and participated in the gallic wars with Julius Cesar. Then, the legion was sended to Britania, to fight and to conquer this land with other legions. We know that in 132 AC, the legion marched to the north, to fight againts the people of Caledonia, but never returned.

After that, the legion is a mistery, and writers used them to write books, like The Eagle of the Ninth, by Rosemary Sutcliff . There are some movie too, like Centurion or the The Eagle. Bands used the theme for songs too, like Legio IX Hispana by Asterium, and The 9th Legion by Suidakra.

In a future, if I work in archaelogy, I love the ancient Rome and I wan't to find the lose legion.
