  • Organization of the Roman Military 150 CE
    Organization of the Roman Military 150 CE It was the strength and proficiency of the Roman army that held the empire together against internal revolts and threats from beyond the borders. The army was unique in the classical world: a professional standing army, with state-provided weapons and armor, salaried troops, and 30 or so legions (the main body of the army) permanently stationed at garrison towns along imperial frontiers. Legions were reinforced with auxiliary troops drawn from the local population. To support the army and protect merchant shipping from piracy, Rome maintained a large navy with fleets in the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean, and along the Rhine and Danube Rivers. LEGION UNITS Legion A body of about 5,000 foot soldiers, uniformly legionaries (160 in first cohort centuries). There were 6 trained and equipped—similar to a modern army division. centuries in the 2nd to 10th cohorts and 5 in the first A legion was the smallest formation in the Roman army cohort. capable of sustained independent operations. Cavalry A small force of about 120 mounted legionaries Cohort (10) The distinct tactical units of a legion, each attached to each legion for escort, messenger, and about 480 men strong—equivalent in size and function to reconnaissance duties. They were not usually seen on a modern infantry battalion. The first cohort was the battlefield. approximately double strength (around 800 men) and Artillery Each legion had 60 engines (catapults). One contained the best soldiers. engine was capable of shooting yard-long, heavy bolts Century (59) An administrative unit within a cohort.

This negative perception of Germania – the modern Netherlands and Germany – lay behind the reluctance of Rome’s great military commanders to tame its immense wilderness. Caius Iulius Caesar famously threw a wooden pontoon bridge across the River Rhine (Rhenus) in just ten days, not once but twice, in 55 and 53 bc. The next Roman general to do so was Marcus Agrippa, in 39/38 bc or 19/18 bc. However, none of these missions was for conquest, but in response to pleas for assistance from an ally of the Romans, the Germanic nation of the Ubii. It was not until the reign of Caesar Augustus that a serious attempt was made to annex the land beyond the wide river and transform it into a province fit for Romans to live in.

  • Integration Or Disintegration? the Roman Army in the Third Century A.D
    INTEGRATION OR DISINTEGRATION? THE ROMAN ARMY IN THE THIRD CENTURY A.D. Lukas de Blois My issue in this paper is: what was the main trend within the Roman military forces in the third century ad? Integration, or disintegration into regional entities? This paper is not about cultural integration of ethnic groups in multicultural parts of the Roman Empire, such as the city of Rome, thriving commercial centres, and border regions to which the armies had brought people from various parts of the Empire, and where multicultural military personnel lived together with indigenous groups, craftsmen from different origins, and immigrants from commercially active regions, either in canabae adjacent to castra stativa, or in garrison towns, as in the Eastern parts of the Empire. In variatio upon an issue raised by Frederick Naerebout in another paper published in this volume, I might ask myself in what sense an army, which in the third century ad was progressively composed of ethnically and culturally different units, kept functioning as an integrated entity, or in actual practice disintegrated into rivalling, particularistic regional forces whose actual or potential competition for money and supplies con- stantly threatened peace and stability in the Empire, particularly in times of dangerous external wars, when the need for supplies increased. The discussion should start with Septimius Severus. After his victories over Pescennius Niger, some tribes in northern Mesopotamia, and Albinus in Gaul, Severus had to replenish the ranks of his armies, for example at the Danube frontiers, which had yielded many men to Severus’ field armies and his new praetorian guard.

Supplying and equipping such a massive force involved a logistical network on an unprecedented scale. These professional soldiers were stationed in every corner of the empire for decades at a time, serving as the defensive bastion against the “barbarians” beyond the frontiers. Establishing permanent bases and forts, they became integral parts of the local economy through trade, intermarriage, and the building of infrastructure.
