Legio I Germanica : ウィキペディア英語版 | Legio I Germanica
''Legio I Germanica'', the 1st Germanic Legion, was a legion of the Imperial Roman army, possibly founded in 48 BC by Gaius Julius Caesar to fight for him in the civil war against Pompey. The title ''germanic'' is a reference to its service in Germany, rather than the place of origin of its soldiers. After the Revolt of the Batavi (AD 70), the remaining men of the ''Germanica'' were added to Galba's seventh legion, which became VII ''Gemina''. The emblem of Legio I is unknown, but it was probably Taurus, like all the other legions levied by Caesar (except the V ''Alaudae''). ==Origin== There are two theories about I ''Germanica'' recruitment. The most favored is that it was raised by Julius Caesar in 48 BC to fight in the civil war against Pompey. In that case it would have fought in the Battle of Pharsalus in 48 BC. A second theory attributes its recruitment to Gaius Vibius Pansa Caetronianus, a partisan of Caesar, who died in the Battle of Forum Gallorum against Mark Antony in 43 BC. Legio I would have been recruited in that year for that campaign. However recruited, Legio I was inherited by Augustus and therefore ought to have been entitled to the ''cognomen'' ''Augusta'' after distinguished service under his eyes; however, there was no Legio I Augusta. That title was stripped after a defeat in the Cantabrian wars and the loss of its standard to the Astur and Cantabrian peoples.
