For as in our club LEG IIII SCYTHICA is very important to know is anyone has any information from military diplomas, gravestones and other historical sources about cohorts names and numbers from I to X which were included in IIII SCYTHICA. This are the sources that make me say that auxilia cohors "I Cispadanensium" was included in was included in IIII SCYTHICA

”Records at the permanent camp of the legion in Moesia refers also the promotion of the veteran L. Campanius Verecundus to signifer and further to centurio of coh. I Cisipadensium (CIL V 8185). A cohors that still later belonged to the Moesian army (as is well known, promotions from old legionary soldiers to non-commissioned officers of the auxilia took place only within the same Provincial exercitus). In addition the Centurio Etuvius Capreolus from Vienna, who served 35 years with IIII Scythica (Dessau 9090) and rose from the ranks to Centurionate, and was conscripted at the latest, in the time of Tiberius.”
