Who Paid The Roman Legions? - Felipe - 06-24-2006
Was it the Generals of each Legion who paid their Legion, or was the Legion personally funded by the Emperor? And this would be During the Second Century.

The emperor made sure that he paid the legions, and gave them the odd donative, too.
After all, it was only sensible to retain the good will of so many men with sharp objects!
