The Auxilia of the Roman Imperial Army

Note 199 — THE AUXILIA DURING THE FIRST TWO CENTURIES A.D.

Reading edition

The original mutineers in Dalmatia seem to have been militia rather than regulars, cf. Dio, lv. 29 καί τινα καὶ σφεῖς δύναμιν πέμψαι κελευσθέντες, συνῆλθόν τε ἐπὶ τούτῳ καὶ τὴν ἡλικίαν σφῶν ἀνθοῦσαν εἶδον, but the phraseology of Velleius (ii. 110) leaves little doubt that regular auxiliaries were also implicated.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
