Fragment of a preserved Roman leather tent from the Vercovicium fort, which formed part of Hadrian’s wall. The creation of one tent for an 8-person contubernium (the smallest unit in the legion) could require about 70 goatskins. [1200×800]

Maybe its just the picture, but that looks awfully small for 8 people. Really cool though!
