CHARTER OF THE SODALITAS BARBARICA

The Sodalitas is formed for the purpose of studying topics such as foreign cults and religions, “barbarian” languages & literature, material culture such as clothing, jewelry and household items, barbarian military & reenactment, historical events, and the adoption of Romanitas. To further that end, the Sodalitas shall facilitate research, propagate/disseminate educational materials, produce material culture, and perform those other activities which are deemed to support that mission.

V. Action Plan

The most regular activities carried out by the Sodalitas Barbarica are Monthly zoom meetings to discuss recent updates & activities, including book readings & presentations on field & literature research. To date, we have had oral presentations on Venus and Germanic Migrations, as well as book discussions on Tacitus’ Germania and Caesar’s Gallic Wars. In addition to the virtual meetings, there is a Groups.io listserv that allows for asynchronous discussion, networking, and communication about upcoming meetings. The Sodalitas Barbarica maintains a communal Google Drive repository with all presentation materials and video recordings of meetings, both for archival and dissemination purposes.

In terms of future growth, we have the goal of inviting knowledgeable guest speakers from inside or outside of Nova Roma to discuss and present on appropriate topics. We also would like to foster & form collaborations with outside groups interested in particular “barbarian” areas of study & reenactment.
