Ahhh, I hadn't thought of how close the Notitia was to Julian's time, thanks. I'm not writing a paper or anything, just trying to get a general idea of what he had and that gives me a good approximation.
That isn't the first time someone has recommended that to me, so I finally Amazoned it today. I'm looking forward to his treatment of Stilicho too.
Stilicho and Belisarius are two of my favorites... good scrappy, tenacious old-school generals.
Quote:A great book that just came out on the subject is "Belisarius" written by Ian Hughs.
