The First Punic War was fought between Rome and Carthage from 264 to 241 BC when the Romans were considered newcomers in the Mediterranean. They also made sure that soldiers had a good diet, which is probably why Roman soldiers – or at least those who survived the battlefield – lived a longer life than civilians during that era. In addition to this, their job was to ensure the sanitation of the army camps to prevent the spread of infection. They used to disinfect the instruments with hot water before using them, a technique which was used up until the 19th century. These professionals were trained to do everything such as making sure the instruments used for surgery were clean.

The Roman military had a dedicated unit of medical professionals along with a surgery unit which treated injured soldiers on the battlefield. They were made up of engineers, doctors, and even architects, who worked together to ensure the army was tactically and physically strong. The Romans had highly trained experts at their disposal who were employed to take care of logistics and casualties. The Romans were well known for their structured organization which set them apart from their enemies, but they suffered casualties just like everyone else. The gaps between the ranks allowed the rear line to step forward during battle if necessary. There were some gaps in the line, but mostly it presented one long, unbroken front. The three lines could often stretch for more than a mile. In front of all of them were the velites, the newest and poorest recruits, whose job it was to attack the approaching enemy with javelins. The lines consisted of the least experienced men, the hastate, at the front followed by the principles and then the triarii, or the most experienced soldiers. Formations were made based on military rank. Suggested credit line: Library of Congress, Music Division.This was a Greek-style phalanx which the Romans adapted.
