(d) It is a term I am unfamiliar with. Is it an inference on your part and, if so, how did you reach that conclusion?
You have also said that a legion could be organised into six tribune cohorts of 800 men each and ten cohorts of 480 men each. Are you suggesting that there were two different types of cohort and, if so, did they co-exist and, if they did not, when were they each in existence?
The answers are in the first section of the book (Rome’s Infancy) I sent you some time back.
I seem to have two versions of that, one of 120 pages and the other of 123. I take it that the latter is the definitive version. It is a long time since I read it. Can you direct me to a particular page or section, to save me either reading through the whole or skipping through it and perhaps missing something?
