Salve,<br>
<br>
There is a famous reference to a Roman fleet deploying against the Carthaginians in the First Punic War in battle lines named after the legionary battle lines (with <i> triarii</i>). Was this retained in later times and if so, is there a connection with any titles borne by naval centurions of the imperial navy?<br>
