One Fort - One Unit

[Mark Hygate]

I have a reference that mentions, although also rare, that there were Ala Peditata (Cavalry Ala with attached Centuria, cf Coh Eq). Can anyone confirm that there is primary evidence for such?

I think that we would need to have details of that reference before we could usefully comment.

Of course! It's an old copy of "The Armies and Enemies of Imperial Rome" by Phil Barker, WRG 4th Ed - which I've had for many many years since early interest and planning armies for war-games and whilst I was a subscriber to 'Slingshot' (I still have all my copies somewhere)

I've cannot recall having seen the Ala Peditata mentioned anywhere else.
