Hi All,
I'm currently working on my PHD into military loyalty and the Roman Army 235-395 AD.
I was looking for some help on the issue of honorific cognomina in the 3rd century. In particular I keep seeing mentions (unreferenced) on the net to III Augusta holding the title Iterum Pia Iterum Vindex from 253 onwards. However I can find no mention of this in Fitz (Hon. titles of roman mil. units) or Le Bohec's exhaustive book on the legion. Is anyone aware of a reference for this honorific title?
cheers,
Mark
