[split] Distances between files and ranks
#58
(08-31-2018, 02:27 PM)Steven James Wrote: Following Hyginus a century had 80 men, and six tribune cohorts to a legion and each tribune commanded ten centuries, a legion had 4,800 men, and each tribune commanded 800 men. Therefore, the legion can be organised into six tribune cohorts each of 800 men and ten cohorts each of 480 men.

Can you give me some references, please? I can see nothing in Hyginus about tribune cohorts or of tribunes commanding any number of men.
