Descriptionof Roman Army Units in the Eastern Provinces 4th–5th Centuries AD. Volume 3: 4th-5th Centuries AD
Manufacturer

After 50 years of chaos in the mid-3rd century AD, Emperor Diocletian (reigned 284305 AD) and his successor Constantine I (reigned 306337 AD), the first Christian emperor, implemented comprehensive administrative reforms to address the new realities and improve defence strategy. In the wake of these changes, the Roman army was completely restructured, with the old structure of legions and auxiliary troops giving way to a central mobile field army and various classes of garrison troops. In addition, the army began to recruit increasing numbers of allied barbarians, some of whom rose to become high-ranking commanders. In this book, Raffaele D'Amato draws on the latest archaeological findings and extensive material from the unique Notitia Dignitatum to examine the armies associated with the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire in the two centuries before the fall of Emperor Romulus Augustus in 476. Illustrated with photographs and drawings of preserved artefacts and imagery, this volume in a series tracing the evolution of the Roman army also includes eight commissioned colour plates.
