	Notitia Dignitatum
		Dignitatum et administrationum tam civilium quam militarum, an official list of civil and military offices in the western empire, which was of service to the primicerius notariorum occidentis (imperial records office of the West), which kept records of all imperial administrative affairs.
		After 428, the Notitia probably gathered dust in a ‘pigeon-hole’ in the office of the magister pededitum praesentalis, a post that grew in political significance under Theodoric in the sixth century, until the Carolingians took the city.

	Late Roman Shield Patterns and the Notitia Dignitatum
		Notitia Dignitatum, the "List of Offices" or better, the "Register of Dignitaries" include pictures showing the shield patterns of hundreds of units in the Roman army as it existed at the start of the 5th century AD.
		It has been argued the the patterns shown in the surviving copies of the Notitia are wholesale fabrications of a medieval copiest; this view has not found widespread acceptance because because the patterns shown are in gneneral terms similar in style to other sources illustrating late Roman shields, and in some cases, essentially identical.
		The document that is the Notitia Dignitatum is divided into halves pertaining to the western and the eastern portions of the Roman empire (or rather, eastern and western portions; the Romans not adhering to the same worldview us us).

	The "Yin-Yang" among the Insignia of the Roman Empire?
		The Notitia Dignitatum is an ancient text of unquestionable importance: it may be defined as a "list of charges" or "list of official functions" at the end of the fourth century and the beginning of the fifth century AD.
		The Notitia Dignitatum, according to Berger, is a document that «tries to perpetuate the imperial Roman heritage in a time when it maintained very little of the previous force or prestige [...].
		With the Notitia Dignitatum we are instead in the fourth or fifth century AD, therefore from the iconographic point of view, almost seven hundred years earlier than the date of its appearance in China.

	Later Imperial Roman Shield Patterns
		The surviving copies of the Notitia Dignitatum, the "List of Offices" or better, the "Register of Dignitaries" (but see here), illustrate patterns for a large number of Roman military units dating to approximately 400 AD.
		By the time of the Notitia, we can see that large units like the old legions had been split into a number of smaller fragments, each with its own (seemingly unrelated?) shield pattern, so at some stage the old units were given new shield patterns.
		The Notitia only records the shield patterns of units in the field armies, so those units purely limited to garrison roles - including the old cohorts dating back to the 3rd century or before - are missing.

	SULLE ORIGINI DELLA NOTITIA DIGNITATUM
		La Notitia in nessun caso indica il nome dei dignitari, che avrebbero versato al primicerio il compenso per l'emissione del codicillo d'investitura, né sussiste la benché minima prova dell'esistenza di un registro globale, comune alle due parti dell'Impero e diverso dai singoli laterculi, che sarebbe stato difficilissimo tenere.

	Medieval Sourcebook: Notitia Dignitatum (Register of Dignitaries), c. 400
		From William Fairley, Notitia Dignitatum or Register of Dignitaries, in Translations and Reprints from Original Sources of European History, Vol.
		The NOTITIA DIGNITATUM is an official register of all the offices, other than municipal, which existed in the Roman Empire.
		He infers that the Notitia was drawn up as early as the time of Valens, and corrected from year to year here and there, while left in many parts unchanged; and that, therefore, does not give the exact military status at any one time.

		The Notitia Dignitatum is a directory of the civil and military administration of the Roman Empire, and was compiled between 395 and 430 CE.
		The emblem of the Thebaei (see it at Luke's site) is particularly intriguing as it is powerfully reminiscent of a Sung dynasty version of the Taiji Tu (a version little known in the West but hugely influential in China), based on a pair of three-line figures, one representing fire, and the other water.
		An article published in 1983 "Inconsistency and Lassitude: The Shield Emblems of the Notitia Dignitatum" (The Journal of Roman Studies; Volume LXXIII) cautions against accepting the Notitia at face value.

	Notitia Dignitatum
		For Britain, the Notitia lists several military commands (the dux Britanniarum, the comes litoris Saxonici per Britannias and the comes Britanniarum), the governors of the five British provinces and the staff of the vicarius in London.
		Army units The problem with this section of the Notitia is that, apart from being incomplete (we assume that the part concerning Wales is lost), it also seems extremely outdated, for most of the units listed for the wall forts are seemingly anachronistic third century cohortes and alae.
		In the light of the disaster in 367 and the following desertions, most historians think it very unlikely that all units returned unchanged; instead the consensus is that the list was not updated after the fourth century and kept only for administrative purposes.

	Notitia
		Listed below are the commands and forces in the notitia Dignitatum as being under the command of the dux britannicarum, or Duke of the Provinces of Britain, at least in the late 4th century, early 5th century AD.
		Since the notitia is a complex document which has undergone a great many changes through history, there are a number of entries that are plainly wrong or confused.
		Unfortunately it does not give a complete picture of forces in the north at this time, as there is not a perfect match between the archaological evidence for the occupation of forts with the notitia evidence.

		The British section of the Notitia Dignitatum (a list of Roman civil and military posts, originating from c.400) records the Comes Britanniarum as commanding six cavalry and three infantry units of the comitatus.
		It is possible the Classis Britannica may have been split into smaller units attached to the coastal forts and operating, as a fighting/reconnaissance force, in concert with the fort's garrison.
		Presumably the Classis Anderetiana, recorded in the Notitia Dignitatum as being based at Paris but originating at Anderida (Pevensey), was such a unit.

	Late Roman Buckles in Britain
		The Notitia Dignitatum is a document that records among other things the shield symbols of Roman military units across the Empire.
		The Notitia Dignitatum is probably of early 5th century date, but the Arch of Constantine, built in 315, shows a similar shield design, suggesting that if the shields and buckles are linked, the latter derive from the former rather than the other way round.
		Incidentally, a significant proportion of the units bearing the twin-headed symbols on their shields, have, judging by their names, links with north-west Europe, from where Constantine drew the army that fought with him at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge.
