Where and in what context was this fragment found? I have an older version of Webster's "Imperial Roman Army", and it's not mentioned.<br>
<br>
In Yann Le Bohec's "Imperial Roman Army", I'm seeing a reference to a "corona navalis". Maybe the ship's prow represents the Tenth, maybe not, as I'm also seeing on your pic what appears to be a "corona muralis". Perhaps this unit had participated in some naval engagement even though it's origins may not necessarily trace back to a naval unit. <p>"The Greeks invented logic but were not fooled by it."
