Quote:shouldnt it be... Tribuni Militi ? or militati ? dunno, just thought it would be different.militum isn't an adjective, so it doesn't need to agree with the noun. It literally means tribune "of the soldiers", so you either have one tribunus "of the soldiers" or several tribuni "of the soldiers". It's militum both times.
You're maybe thinking of tribunus laticlavius, where laticlavius is an adjective, so several of them would be tribuni laticlavii. (Same with tribunus angusticlavius.)
