Quote:If the reference to le quartier des Macédoniens, ‘the district of the Macedonians’, having to maintain the section of the ramparts that protected it is a correct interpretation, it would seem, as Macedon suggests, that this militates against the inscription relating to the old legio Macedonica.Which seems to me the most logical explaination, as already proposed by Ross Cowan as well. Each unit would have been responsible for their own section of the wall.
