Late Roman Army Grade/Rank List under Anastasius
#37
Quote:What is missing is the numbers of ungraded men

Ah yes, you're quite right! The last grades listed (aside from the 'munifices') are the various semissales, who receive 1.5 annonae. So there would, as you say, be the ordinary pedites beneath them on 1 annona.

But Prof Onur's text says that the figure of 1550-1600 is the number listed in the schedule - so surely it would not include unlisted men?



Quote:I might be able to help out with the translation, if you have any specific sentences in mind.

Thanks for the offer, but without knowing the context it would be hard to select which bits would be most useful! I'd have to wait for a full translation of the whole text, I think.
