Rome\'s most able general?

[Theodosius the Great]

This would seem to indicate that Master of Horse was a title for a Dictator's deputy, rather than necessarily an actual cavalry. commander.....

Interesting. In earlier times I suspect the title meant what it actually says.

Even in the Late Empire there seems to be no consistency with regards to the new offices of 'Magister Militum' and 'Magister Equitum'.
