Hello. Can someone help me with some numbers?
In 4th century Rome, I read that a legion numbed about 1200 men, a century about 80 men,. So what was the size of a cohort during that time, and how many in a legion (if there were only 1200 in a legion)?
I got this information from The Roman Army by Adrian Goldsworthy but the njmbers dont seem to add up
Thank you
