Auxiliary Units in First Century AD Britain
#1
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.


Auxiliary units during the invasion AD43-44
We divide the units in different groups.
Units identified from the written record. (Cassius Dio)
COHORT I BATAVORVM; COHORT II BATAVORVM;
COHORT III BATAVORVM; COHORT IV BATAVORVM
COHORT V BATAVORVM; COHORT VI BATAVORVM
COHORT VII BATAVORVM; COHORT VIII BATAVORVM
Units identified from artifacts dated close to the time of the invasion.
ALA I THRACVM; COHORS VI THRACVM EQ
ALA INDIANA GALLORVM; ALA VETTINVM
Other units suspected to have been there.
