a javelin or two as well as his shield and sword when he went into battle. However when on the march, he carried about 70 pounds of gear. (They were not referred to as "Marius" Mules" for nothing) The equipment was strapped to his "fulcra" or carrying pole. Some of the gear he carried was his "dolabra" or digging tool, two wooden stakes, his cooking pot, rations, his shield in its leather cover, and his helmet which was slung over his shoulder.
