Scots in Roman service
#6
You're very welcome John.
Birley - if I remember correctly - sees a link between this conscription and the revolt of 117 a.D. - the only relevant militiary event occurred in the area in the timespan covered by Vindolanda documents (though not mentioned in them).
Though there's no final proof, afaik, that Anavionenses were involved, A. Birley assumes that this may be the case - possibly as a consequence of the forced conscription.
