Fratres,
Very interesting post. I do not have any additional epigraphic evidence but this points to a sort of confirmation of the oral traditions of one of my Minorities here in the Balkans. Lots of minor variations depending on which sub region the story comes from but the gist is that the sons of the Veterans (New Citizens) went into the local Legions and that became a family tradition of sorts.
Does anyone else have any information on the prevalence of local ties of other legions?
Regards from a pleasantly cool and sunny Scupi, Arminius Primus aka Al
