Not any intention to disrupt this appasionate information exchange (I can´t add nothing) but to remark that the unit reenacted by my group (in it´s late Roman period) is one of such units (and never part of a legion): the Cohors Prima Gallica.

Quote:Thje unit was recruited as an infantry unit -Cohors quinquagenaria peditata- named Cohors I Voluntariorum after Teotoburg, receiving their insignia the April 22nd 10 a.C.,being sent by Octavian to the Rhin limes. As the Germaniae were simply military districts of the Gallia Belgica, tha unit received the nickname of Gallica, bein named in that moment as Cohors I Gallica Voluntariorum, under the command of a equestrial order´s Tribunus cohortis.
