The Roman Empire fell almost two thousand years ago, but its aesthetics still lives on. Columns, arches, togas, the color purple, and laurel wreaths all became popular thanks to Rome. The cultural heritage of Rome is so great that its influence can be seen even in game skins. Today we have gathered for you a selection of antique skins in CS2, inspired by the Roman Empire.
The base of P2000 Imperial is a rich red color, decorated with patterns and gold accents. Overall, the design resembles the shield of a Roman legionary. This skin is perfect for today's selection.
Some historians believe that Roman legionaries were practically forced to decorate their weapons, as a beautiful blade would be a pity to throw on the battlefield. Well, this Glock-18 Royal Legion will indeed be a pity to throw away for another skin.
Athena is a goddess from Greek mythology, which the Romans borrowed by simply changing the names of some characters. Thus Athena became Minerva, but her symbol, the owl, remained unchanged, as did the title "goddess of war". FAMAS Eye of Athena looks awesome and epic, perfectly fitting the ancient theme.
One of the first references to the basilisk can be found in the ancient Roman historian Pliny the Elder. This dangerous and venomous serpent could kill silently with just a single glance. Although the M4A1-S Basilisk is not capable of killing with a glance, it is great for silent frags.
Roman legionaries conquered not only all of Europe, but also North Africa. Thus, Egyptian motifs infiltrated the ancient culture. The AK-47 Steel Delta is decorated with a pattern reminiscent of a map or the waves of the Nile River. It is a worthy candidate for our selection.
