The Ancient Romans used the Testudo formation, meaning "tortoise" in Latin, as a powerful siege tactic. Soldiers locked their shields tightly on all sides and above, creating a protective shell that could move under heavy fire. This allowed them to advance toward enemy walls while deflecting arrows and missiles. Though highly effective in defense, it was slow and vulnerable in close combat, but it demonstrated the Romans’ unmatched discipline and tactical skill #history #ancientrome #historical
