Origins of soldiers:
- Italia: Mediolanium, two brothers (CIL V 5595; perhaps also V 5828), Saena ? (XI 1806).
Gallia Narbonensis: Vienna, Dessau 9090. [1559].), assumed to be in Saparevsko Banja, east of Dupnica, south of Serdica (Skopje), could have been possibly a suitable base of a troop; at that time, when it was responsible to be able to intervene with the force of arms, being in proximity in Thrace since 46 CE. An alternate possibility for it would be that the place might be found a little more east than assumed by Jirecek, close to the line Serdica - Philoppopolis, from where the main entrance to Thrace could be controlled. As was done later from the well-known Succi pass (Ammian. XXI 10, 2. XXII 2, 2. XXVI 10, 4 among other things; compare with Jirecek 89). The temporary stationing of a Moesian legion so far south in the interior, if really testified, would not seem to be too remarkable, because the river border was covered by two legions (V Macedonica and VIII Augusta) - likewise Schultze ( seeks to explain the impossible by a mistake of Tacitus: the source taken as a basis had spoken only about a legion IIII as been shifted to Syria and thereby the author had erroneously thought of the legion of this number (IIII Macedonica), that actually stood in Germania at that time, and instead of the number he used the garrison province.
