Abstract 520    $a"The popular image of the Roman legion is bound up with that of its most famous class of officer - the centurion, marked out by the transverse crest on his helmet, the decorated greaves protecting his legs, and the vine-stick cudgel in his hand. It was the centurions who trained and disciplined the legionairies, brutally but effectively, and it was their military virtues and bravery that formed the backbone of the Roman war machine. Drawing upon a wealth of archaeological and literary sources, this book interprets the evidence fo their duties, careers and appearance in the centuries before the reign of Augustus Caesar."--Publisher's note
