It sounds like you are confusing Roman burial customs with other cultures. The Romans, for the most part did not bury their weapons with them. Perhaps a distinguished officer might have this type of burial, but only rarely and only if he were buried in the first place. Now, the Romans did inter or bury their dead at certain times, but for the most part they cremated their dead. ( It would be difficult to get a sword into a jar of ashes.) At any rate, the soldier was normally cremated and his ashes sent home to his family. If he did not specifically bequeath his sword or knife, his only personal weapons, to someone, his weapons were taken and given out to someone else.
