Jerash was one of the cities of the Decapolis during the time of Christ. Today we visited the ruins of that city. It is an impressive site, and I think I have worked through the problem I was having in uploading photos from here. At least I have discovered one way it can be done.
Here is a small photo of the Roman soldiers of the 6th Legion demonstrating the formation used in protecting the banner of the Legion.
