Quote:It would be dangerous to assume from this that there was any such thing as a cavalry cohort or to ascribe any particular number of men to it.
Particularly from an ad hoc change of strategy. Very interesting that the cavalry fully understood infantry tactics and how to use them to advantage. Obviously, cavalry and infantry had very different function. Off hats to these intrepid cavalrymen!

Wonder if their horses ran off...

Could one conclude that the word "cohort" sometimes was a generic name for a group of soldiers (in this case cavalry), and not always the standard group of centuria?
