Hellenistic Infantry Reform in the 160's B. C.

Sekunda Argues that in the 160s BC, the Ptolemaic and Seleucid infantry were reorganized to make them more successful and more competitive against the might of the Romans. This Romanization of the military took the form of new tactics and changes in the organization and equipment of the soldiers, as evidenced in archaeological, literary, epigraphic and iconographic sources. Sekunda looks at the pre-Romanized organization of the infantry for the necessary background to the later reforms.Sekunda, Nicholas is the author of 'Hellenistic Infantry Reform in the 160's B.
