LITUUS

This musical instrument seems it was reserved for the roman cavalry. It is possible that it was also used by the auxiliar infantry since one Lituus has been found in Mainz, close to the Saalburg field

Este instrumento musical estaba, al parecer, reservado a la caballería romana, aunque es posible , occupied during II century a.C. by the II Retia Cohorte. Only 2 have been found in good conditions. This reproduction is based on them.

Made on brass. Length, around 1 meter.
