Salve,<br>
<br>
In <i> Exploratio</i> by Austin and Rankov, page 150, the title of <i> cornicularius</i> is described as derived from the <i> corniculum</i> (little horn), a republican era type of military decoration which was probably worn on the helmet. It gives as source references ILS 8888, Livius 10.44.5, Suetonius, <i> On Grammarians</i> 9, anonymous <i> On famous men</i> 3.72.3 and Plinius <i> Natural history</i> 10.124.<br>
