Quote:i also observed that but took it as a fact...

IMHO the role of the auxilia is underestimated by "ordinairy people". People only imagine the legions doing all the fighting.
I think that Trajan's column in this case shows the reality

Quote:Or, it shows a story the emperor likes to tell: "Look, we got those barbarians to fall in battle for us, no Roman blood needed to be spilt" in the Tacitean Mons Graupius manner.

Did the Romans viewed the auxilia like that?
