Product Description
Up to 60,000 cavalry were used at any given time between the 1st and 4th Centuries A.D. Cavalry forts were an integral part of Roman defenses such as Hadrian's wall. The ability to scout and raid into enemy territory, as well as quick response to enemy raids, made cavalry more and more important. After the second half of the 2nd Century B.C., Roman cavalry was all recruited from the conquered territories. Roman officers commanded the "alae" cavalry regiments, which were about 500 strong. The force was further divided into 16 "turmae", each commanded by a Decurion.
