military tribunes. lots of Q\'s
#1
Now, I know that there were usually six tribunes per legion, that they were directly commissioned.
Were they equestrian class citizens only ?
what function did they have in garrison and on the battlefield ?
How long were there appointments ?
were there those that only went to further their political career vs a a career soldier ?
were they always mounted ?
how many attendants would a tribune have in his 'entourage' ?
thanks. the books I have are very vague on the position of tribune.
