Julian and the invasion of Persia
#50
The presence of the legion of Zianni, commanded by Vetranio, killed in action at Maranga is certain in my opinion: that fact it's attested by Ammianus XXV 1,19 and Zosimus III, 28 too. Even if not mentioned in the Notitia, there was surely a legion called so and its commander was well known, it's enough for me...

A regiment of Protectores Domestici is to be put in the list.

The Legio IV Scythica it was commanded by Septimius Seuerus in Syria and was there till the V century... It's to be investigated too...

Valete,
TITVS/Daniele Sabatini

... Tu modo nascenti puero, quo ferrea primum
desinet ac toto surget Gens Aurea mundo,
casta faue Lucina; tuus iam regnat Apollo ...


Vergilius, Bucolicae, ecloga IV, 4-10
