The Romans were small. I think that can be verfied from the archaeology.

But then, nearly everyone in the past was smaller than we are today. I guess it's got a lot to do with nutrition.

I remember as a child seeing one of Admiral Lord Nelson's uniforms in a museum display case and my mother pointing out how tiny he was.
