What happened to the auxilia after 212?

[L C Cinna]

Here's a list from "Am Rande des Imperiums" from the Limesmuseum in Aalen:

I only write down the numbers they give for Septimius Severus, Caracalla and Maximinus Thrax as these are important for the time we're talking about. if anyone wants numbers under Augustus and Domition as well I will add them.

Septimius/Caracalla/Maximinus(in sesterci)

Miles legionis 2400/3600/7200
Eques legionis 2800/4200/8400
Centurio legionis 36000/54000/108000
Cent.p.o. 72000/108000/216000
Primuspilus 144000/216000/432000

Auxilia>
Miles cohortis 2000/3000/6000
Eques cohortis x/3600/7200
Eques alae 2800/4200/8400
centurio cohortis 10000/15000/30000
decurio cohortis 12000/18000/36000
decurio alae 14000/21000/42000

differences between the ranks are not that high, payment for centuriones is quite different.

note that there are many people with ranks like duplicarius and triplicarius a.s.o. which earn more.(another example from the book under Septimius an eques in the ala II Flavia would earn 2800, a sesquiplicarius 4200, duplicarius 5600, vexilarius 8400, decurio 14000)

another important thing are the donativa which vary.

I used some prices for wine and bread some time ago and calculated how much they could buy per year at that time and then compared to modern average prices (well not a great method so I won't give numbers) but I have to say payment was really good. lowest ranks are about the same as a modern worker, everything higher is very very good.sesquiplicarius is already modern upper middleclass.

and that without donativa and booty
