Late Roman Field Armies

[Flavivs Aetivs]

Ian Hughes reconstructed it pretty effectively. It was impossible for both Aetius and Felix to hold the Magister Utriusque Militiae command in 429, yet Felix was still alive when Aetius is first mentioned in this position. The only logical explanation is that there was a Junior and Senior command derived from the Equitum and Peditum commands. There are other arguments in support of this dating from Constantius III's holding of the Magister Utriusque Militiae title.
