I have been trying to put togetrher a list of Auxiliary Units in 1st Century AD Britain. I have the following list, and what method was used to "verify" that the unit was there, (if any). I would appreciate any additions and helpful comments.

We divide the units in different groups.
Units identified from the written record. (Cassius Dio)
