There is in fact a 1961 film about this conflict called "Duel of Champions", which was directed by the famous Terence Fisher (known for directing the first James Bond films).

I wouldn't put it past the Romans to have a similar salute where they show the palm of their hand to the person they're greeting. It's a natural gesture and would serve as a natural ancestor to the modern Roman Salute. I think there's also the fact a few surviving documents make mention that the only time a Soldier would salute a thin-striped Tribune is when the sun is in his eyes. Assuming I'm not talking out of my ass, the fact we know Romans had a salute that would require you to put your hand in front of your face means it isn't a stretch to assume the Roman Salute is at least partly accurate or faithful.

Hitler got that salute from the original way Americans saluted the flag. It was called the Bellamy Salute. The man who wrote the pledge of allegiance, Francis Bellamy, came up with the salute. You started with your hand over your heart when you said, “I pledge allegiance”. You then stretched your hand out, either overhand or underhand when you said, “to the flag” . And you left it outstretched for the rest of the pledge. Francis Bellamy was a Socialist. The SS were called “Socialist” even though they were really fascist. Hitler stole a lot of ideas from the American Socialist Party. In 1946, a law was passed forbidding the Bellamy Salute. Because it had become identified with the Nazi Sig Heil. My mom is 88 and remembers doing the Bellamy Salute before and during WWII. And she remembers the gestures of the pledge being changed after WWII.

I wonder if anyone saluted, especially on the presence of the emperor because the way its depicted in films its a similar gesture to drawing a sword. I actually think in the presence of authority you were probably meant to bow your head and hands stayed firmly at your side and no sudden movements. Or just somewhere where they they can be seen. When declaring someone emperor or God that probably had the hand gesture. I don't think we have any sources of salutes in any ancient texts from any kingdom or empire....

my friends and i greet each other with this salute when we just meet up to hang, though less how the Nazis do it and more with a bent elbow and forward-facing hand, more Italian like. We do it because like 8 years ago or something a few of us really liked Fascism and some of us liked Rome so we all liked the salute as a greeting. It was usually accompanied by "Hail!" but we dropped that part since we aren't Fascists anymore. We still use the hand gesture as an almost subconscious thing. We've had conversations about why we still do it, and we've reached the conclusion that it just became a part of our friendgroup's culture, along with some other cool stuff from that time period such as an almost sacred association we had with drinking soda, especially together. Friendgroup's lost a lot of our old traditions these days. Half of them don't even like me anymore. I only still talk to 2 of them, 1 of whom is off in the marines and the other wasn't there during the old days but still greets with the salute as we still fervently did it when he joined us. But him and i never really do it anymore since he has a car now, and we no longer walk up to each other and therefore can't throw up the salute as we approach. One could argue that it's good, maybe, that it's a dying tradition in my group. I disagree. It doesn't mean Fascism or Rome to us anymore. it hasn't for years. it means comradery and bond to us, but just like the salute, we lost out bond too it seems...

Before the Europeans used it, it was used in the US at the pledge of allegiance from 1892 to 1942 known as the Bellamy Salute. It started with the hand outstretched toward the flag, palm down, and ended with the palm up.

We have seen this salute in artworks that were created at the time.. so yes they actually do it, regardless of what the Nationalist Socialists of Germany did. There’s no need to play it down. One emulated the other. It happens all the time.

Well it was more of just a wave rather than a salute. In any case they didn’t use any sort of greeting like how Hollywood and the fascists depicts it.

The gesture is the same the timing was probably different like a smooth diagonal wave rather than a Ridgid movement

I tried to teach my toddler nephew the Roman salute. As soon as I saw what it looked like he was saluting, I had to get him to stop before my big sister killed me

the Roman gladiators did it during the circus games organized by the senators, for example in the theater of Capua
@AnnamariaLeprini Жыл бұрын
For example, fighters like Mirmillone or Trace used to raise their right arm holding the weapon before the fight towards the wing of the senators who financed the game, and in recognition of the Lanista (the owner of the Ludus, or the training school of gladiators).
