Quote:Ammianus 31 12 2 he tried competently to frustrate this attempt by quickly sending an infantry troop of bowmen and a squadron of cavalry.. . . peditibus sagittariis et equitum turma . . ., ' . . . with infantry archers and a turma of cavalry . . .' So, turma for 'squadron' but no specific word for 'troop'.
Renatus can you translate what the word Ammianus uses for "troop" and also "squadron."?
