Roman Legion vs Macedonian Phalanx: Who Won? #rome #roman #phalanx #macedonian #military #tactical

Roman Legion vs. Macedonian Phalanx! 🛡️ In 197 & 168 BC, Rome DOMINATED. Alexander's phalanx was powerful head-on but inflexible on rough terrain. Roman legions with manipular system were mobile & adaptable. Romans chose uneven ground, exploited flanks, used superior combined arms. Roman gladius xiphos, pilum pierced shields, scutum offered better coverage than Macedonian shields, and Roman mail armor provided superior protection. #RomanLegion #MacedonianPhalanx #AncientWarfare #HistoryShorts #Craig #Pydna #Cynoscephalae #AncientRome #AncientGreece #MilitaryHistory #BattleTactics #MilitaryStrategy #CombinedArms #RomanArmy #Phalanx #ancientbattles
