The way the Romans fought had hardly had any influence in the way other generations fought. In The Early Middle Ages warfare was carried out by a cavalry made up of medieval aristocrats. The Romans fought mainly with infantries. Over time new military technology came about, especially cannons and rifles which revolutionised warfare. Contemporary warfare is even more remote from the Romans. They did not have lorries, jeeps, tanks, aircrafts, submarines and the like. The only remnant of Roman warfare in the Early Middle Ages was the adoption of catapults which were similar to the Roman onager. The only influence on subsequent warfare was the study of the tactics of the great Roman battles in military academies. However, those of the Greeks, Persians and other civilisation are also studied.
