Usually they are used as the identifier of a legion, and then you have the century standards as well.

The eagle was the soul of the legion, The aquilia, and then the centuries had a type of banner called a vexelleum.

I have gotten the impression from the many posts on here that there was no Cohortal standard.

I am speaking in layman terms of course, there are people who spend all their time studying these things who will tell you more, with more accurate terminology!
