	Roman legion
		The Roman legion (from the Latin legio, meaning levy) was the basic military unit of ancient Rome.
		Much of Roman history during this time is founded on legends, but it is believed that during the reign of Servius Tullius, all Roman able-bodied, property-owning male citizens were first divided into five classes for military service based on wealth, since soldiers provided their own weapons and equipment.
		At some point, possibly in the beginning of the Roman Republic, the legio was subdivided into two separate legions, each one ascribed to one of the two consuls.

	VI Ferrata
		In the case of VI Ferrata, the veteran at Beneventum in 41 implies that this legion was indeed the one raised by Caesar in 52, that fought with him through the Alexandrian war and the Zela campaign - its steadfastness at Zela seems a likely excuse for the unusual name being awarded.
		As Octavian had his own VI Victrix (formed in part from the remains of 'Ferrata 2'!), we can assume that Antony had a 'Ferrata 3', composed almost totally of new recruits and men from Brutus and Cassius' armies, with perhaps a few of the old veterans as centurions.
		VI was in Judea much later, and perhaps there's some confusion there, but as yet I haven't found evidence of a Roman military presence under Herod.

		According to the inscription, Castus was a centurion of the Legio III Gallica, then moved to VI Ferrata, then to V Macedonica, where he was promoted to primus pilus.
