Abolla

right|thumb|Two men wearing abollas, as seen on the bas-reliefs on the triumphal Arch of Septimius Severus at Rome. An abolla was a cloak-like garment worn by ancient Greeks and Romans. Nonius Marcellus quotes a passage of Varro to show that it was a garment worn by soldiers (vestis militaris), and thus opposed to the toga. Roman women also wore a version of the abolla by at least the imperial period.
