The Praetorian Wedge: Roman Riot Control

Описание: How did Rome police a million people without guns?

Ancient Rome was a powder keg of political tension and food riots. To keep the peace, the Emperors deployed the Urban Cohorts, the elite riot police of the ancient world. In this tactical breakdown, we look at how the Romans used the "Cuneus" or Wedge formation to dominate narrow city streets and how psychological warfare was their most effective weapon against the mob.
Forget what you’ve seen in the movies; Roman riot control was a cold, calculated science of geometry and intimidation.
