This was Caracalla (bust and reconstruction)
And this was Geta (bust and reconstruction)
The Severans were from Carthage and likely had a North African look not different from modern day Tunisians, on the reconstruction Geta is too dark skinned but Caracalla is about right. Caracalla did wear a blonde wig while on his campaigns on Germania but it probably looked very uncanny on him.
Meanwhile on Ridley Scott slop
The trailer is hilarious! Rap music, Kang merchant Denzel working to destroy the Roman Empire, two ginger gay twinks as villains. I was half-expecting the Rock showing up with Vin Diesel !nooticers
@Aevann can this get a pin please
Hollywood seems keen on erasing North Africans and replace them with either pasty Bongs or Kangz.
