Home Page of Legion Six Victorious, the Greater Los Angeles area's premier Roman reenactment society.
Twenty
centuries ago,
the original
Legio VI Victrix distinguished itself as a fighting and
civilizing force, bringing the enemies of Rome to heel and teaching them
the benefits of civilization. Today's Legio VI Victrix recreates a garrison
camp near the Roman city of Eburacum (modern York) in the province of
Britannia. Our members portray the foot soldiers and officers of the
legion, as well as the civilian denizens of a Roman provincial city. Our
time frame is AD 130-160, during the reigns of the Emperors Hadrian
and Antoninus Pius.
We strive to inform, educate, and entertain both ourselves and the public,
and to have lots of fun along the way! Toward these goals, we take part in
film and television productions, military timelines, historical faires and other special events, as well as
give educational presentations throughout Southern California.
To help stay fit, we conduct
marches in full kit once each month. We also
take part in "experimental archaeology"
to help historians investigate how the Romans may have done things.
Finally, we enjoy the special camaraderie of a shared fascination with
this important historical epoch.
