Where did they keep the mules in garrison?
#35
Quote:Question, is there any consensus about how many animals single legion had?
People are free to speculate, of course. But in truth, we have absolutely no idea how many mules a single legion might have. And many legions would've had absolutely no use for mules, in any case. Even taking a hypothetical "legion at war", Jonathan Roth believes that each tent-party required two mules, while others imagine that they had only one mule -- there's a doubling of the figures, right there! :roll:
