Vicus

An Iron Age and early Roman re-enactment society that interprets history through the medium of experimental archaeology, reconstruction and living history. A ‘Vicus’ is a settlement that grows outside of Roman military bases to cater to the needs of the soldiers (and their money), Likely to have originally been of a temporary nature, these settlements quickly grow into communities and later into permanent towns. The Society looks to simulate this aspect where the Roman and British cultures merge. Always looking for new recruits. Family orientated and membership open to everyone. One of the few societies that accepts both Romans and Britons and combines living history and combat for this period and the only UK society that allows women into the Roman units.
