Published by Oxford University Press, this volume examines how these diverse soldiers helped build the empire and maintain the pax Romana. By drawing on the latest historical and archaeological research, the book explores the daily lives of these troops. It covers essential aspects of their existence, including recruitment processes, religious beliefs, daily routines, language, combat tactics, and military dress.
