  Romano-British Gridiron, British Museum Pattern

  SKU: AH4361

  This gridiron, or craticula, recreates a genuine Roman cooking implement, closely following an original held in the British Museum collection.

  The gridiron was a genuine Roman culinary innovation in Britain, a metal cooking framework unknown in the archaeological record before the Roman occupation but found widely across the Empire once introduced. The design follows the museum original closely: four bars, two ending in short legs with turned-out feet, and two bent into decorative omega shapes bound at their centre, forming a stable plate for pots, kettles or skewers.

  Deepeeka’s reproduction brings that genuine museum piece to your own camp, part of our Roman heritage range.

  Roman Lamp with Parchment Cover

  SKU: AH6294

  This Roman-style lamp is fitted with a parchment cover, protecting the flame while letting a warm glow shine through.

  Roman lighting relied on simple clay oil lamps for most everyday needs, but covered, wind-resistant lamps served travellers and military camps where an exposed flame was impractical. This reproduction recreates that practical covered form for genuine Roman camp use.

  Roman Tent, 18′ x 12′ x 9′

  SKU: AH6411

  The tents of the all-conquering Roman legions were made from goat and calfskin, and this reproduction comes as close to that original as practically possible, produced in rectangular brown, leather-coloured tent fabric.

  Using period-appropriate fabric rather than genuine hide keeps the price accessible while still giving a genuinely high degree of visual authenticity for a Roman legionary camp impression, sized 18 by 12 by 9 feet for a substantial group or contubernium tent.

  Deepeeka’s reproduction recreates that legionary field shelter at a larger scale, part of our Roman heritage range.

  Roman Frying Pan, Tinned

  SKU: AH3982N

  This frying pan recreates Roman cookware, a form the Romans are credited with essentially pioneering for regular culinary use.

  Roman kitchens made extensive use of frying and simmering, and the bronze frying pan, or fretale, with its distinctive pouring lip, was a well-documented piece of kitchen equipment alongside rectangular iron trays for roasting. This version is finished with a tinned surface for practical, food-safe cooking.

  Deepeeka’s reproduction recreates that Roman cookware tradition, part of our Roman heritage range.

  Roman Trooper Tent, 9′ x 9′ x 7′

  SKU: AH6412

  The tents of the all-conquering Roman legions were made from goat and calfskin, and this reproduction comes as close to that original as practically possible, produced in rectangular brown, leather-coloured tent fabric.

  Using period-appropriate fabric rather than genuine hide keeps the price accessible while still giving a genuinely high degree of visual authenticity for a Roman legionary camp impression, sized 9 by 9 by 7 feet for a compact trooper’s tent.

  Roman Cornu, Brass Signal Horn

  SKU: AH3870

  This brass, G-shaped cornu is a fully functional Roman communications horn, fitted with a hardwood cross-member for support and grip.

  The cornu served the Roman military as a genuine signalling instrument, sounded by a cornicen to relay orders across a battlefield too loud and chaotic for the human voice alone to carry commands reliably. It is depicted on Trajan’s Column and on the tombstone of a cornicen from Novaesium, and this reproduction draws on those sources alongside a cornu shown on a mosaic from Nennig, Germany, and an original held in the Roman Museum in Aalen, Germany.

  Deepeeka’s reproduction brings that genuine Roman military signal instrument to life, part of our Roman heritage range.

  Roman Camp Stove, Multi-Purpose

  SKU: AH3983

  This Roman stove solves the multi-purpose task of grilling and cooking in pots at the same time, a genuinely practical piece of legionary camp equipment.

  Roman military camps relied on practical, multi-functional cooking equipment that could serve a whole contubernium, or squad of roughly eight soldiers, efficiently in the field. This box-shaped stove with its integrated grate reflects that approach, letting a cook grill and simmer at once.

  Deepeeka’s reproduction recreates that multi-purpose Roman camp stove, part of our Roman heritage range.
