I'm somewhat new at Roman military history, so pardon me if this is a dumb/obvious question.<br>
Concerning the 'Wedge' formation, was this done by each cohort, forming a jagged edged battle line for an entire legion, or was it done by each century? Or was it done by whole legions? I would wager a guess at cohorts, being the tactical formations, but I'm not sure. Thanks.<br>
