When Julian was sent to Gaul in 355 AD, according to Julian, Constantius gave Julian 360 soldiers. (Julian (Letter to the Athenians 277 D) Zosimus writes that Constantine gave Julian not more than 360 men. Unfortunately the online version I have of Zosimus only has this reference as part of book 4.
The question to Macedon is, does Julian’s translation say it is exactly 360 men or about 360 men. I also would like to know what the translation of the Zosimus about the 360 men is but first I will try and find the correct reference.
