Labarum on a missorium from Valentinian I.
I just noticed this, but there are (surprisingly) recognizable patterns from the Notitia on that shield.
From left to right:
1, 2, 3, Emperor, 4, 5, 6
1. Possibilities:
-Equites Honoriani Taifali Iuniores
-Equites Marcomanni
-Equites Certrati Iuniores
-Equites Honoriani Iuniores (IMO Most Likely because of the possibility of the Seniores also being on this piece)
2. Possibilities:
-Constantini Dafnenses
3. Indiscernable
4. Possibilities (This one is difficult, i should note, but it barely looks like two animals with their paws facing the boss):
-Equites Honoriani Seniores (IMO Most Likely because of the possibility of the Iuniores also being on this piece)
-Equites Mauri Feroces
5. There are a lot of possibilities:
-Lanciarii Seniores
-Lanciarii Iuniores
-Secunda Flavia Gemina
-Britones Seniores
-Septimani Iuniores
-Lanciarii Honoriani Gallicani
6. Possibilities (Based on that the double-neck begins below the boss and not at the boss):
-Honoriani Atecotti Iuniores
-Defensores
-Sagittarii Dominici
