This article lists ''ラテン語:auxilia'', non-legionary auxiliary regiments of the imperial Roman army, attested in the epigraphic record, by Roman province of deployment during the reign of emperor Hadrian ( 117–). The index of regimental names explains the origin of the names, most of which are based on the names of the subject tribes or cities of the empire where they were originally recruited. (As time went by, they became staffed by recruits from anywhere, especially from the province where they were deployed.) == Types of regiment == During most of the Principate era, until , auxiliary regiments, called ''ラテン語:auxilia'' by the Romans, were formations kept separate from the legions, who were recruited from Roman citizens only. ''ラテン語:Auxilia'' were mostly recruited from the ''peregrini'', the vast majority of subjects in the Roman empire who did not hold Roman citizenship. (in , all the inhabitants of the empire were granted Roman citizenship). There were three basic types of auxiliary regiment: *''ラテン語:alae'', which contained only cavalry and consisted nominally of 480 soldiers *''ラテン語:cohortes peditatae'' or simply ''ラテン語:cohortes'', which contained only infantry and consisted nominally of 480 soldiers *''ラテン語:cohortes equitatae'', which contained infantry with an attached cavalry contingent and consisted nominally of 600 soldiers, of which 480 were infantry and 120 were cavalry A number of regiments, of all three types, were designated ''ラテン語:sagittariorum'' (sagitt), indicating that their members were equipped as archers. After about , about 12 percent of regiments were enlarged from the ''ラテン語:quingenarie'' size and designated ''ラテン語:milliarie'', which nominally consisted of 1000 soldiers, but in reality consisted of 720 soldiers, 800 soldiers, and 1040 soldiers respectively. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of Roman auxiliary regiments」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
