I have read several texts concerning late Britain trying to understand the troop disposition along the Saxon Shore.
In looking at units listed in the ND and then at individual city entries concerning Roman troops stationing, I get what I see as a jumbled, contradictory listing of which units were stationed where, and when they were there.
My question at the moment, in particular, is about Colchester. In the very early 5th century, Were Roman units stationed there, what units were they, and where, in or around Colchester, were they posted.
In addition, at that time, where would the Count have been headquartered?
Thank you in advance for your help.
