Formasi testudo

Dalam peperangan Romawi Kuno, testudo atau formasi kura-kura adalah sebuah sebuah formasi yang umum digunakan oleh para Legiun Romawi pada saat pertempuran, terutama pengepungan. Testudo adalah kata Latin untuk "kura-kura". Istilah Yunani untuk formasi tersebut adalah "chelone" dan pada era Bizantium, formasi tersebut tampak dilibatkan pada panduan militer era tersebut dan disebut "foulkon".
