Auxilia Cohorts and the Claudian Invasion of Britain
#7
Ah, a rapid and constructive response!

Questions:

Jasper - I don't have this book. If you have a copy on your shelves I'd be very greatful if you could dig out the relevant info.

Brian - Fascinating list - One that poses more questions than it answers!

Does Spaul give his evidence for each unit? Where was I Brittanica recruited? (may sound like a daft question, but it suggests a formed Ala of british cavalry pre AD50!) I assume Classiana has a naval connection? (For cavalry?!!)

Graham - Similarly, I dont have Guy's book. What units does he mention as part of the claudian invasion?

Oleg - Thanks again, interesting that we have more evidence for cavalry. I suppose they were setting up more inscriptions.

Thankyou all,
