520    The Roman army was one of the most astounding 
       organizations in the ancient world, and much of the 
       success of the Roman empire can be attributed to its 
       soldiers. Archaeological remains and ancient texts provide
       detailed testimonies that have allowed scholars to 
       understand and reconstruct the army’s organization 
       and activities. This interest has traditionally worked in 
       tandem with the study of Roman frontiers. Historically, 
       the early imperial period, and in particular the emergence
       of the frontiers, has been the focus of research. During 
       those investigations, however, the remains of the later 
       Roman army were also frequently encountered, if not always
       understood. Recent decades have brought a burgeoning 
       interest in not only the later Roman army, but also late 
       antiquity more widely.It is the aim of this volume to 
       demonstrate that while scholars grappling with the late 
       Roman army may want for a rich corpus of inscriptions and 
       easily identifiable military installations, research is 
       revealing a dynamic, less-predictable force that was 
       adapting to a changing world, in terms of both external 
       threats and its own internal structures. The dynamism and 
       ingenuity of the late Roman army provides a breath of 
       fresh air after the suffocating uniformity of its 
       forbears.  The late Roman army was a vital and influential
       element in the late antique empire. Having evolved through
       the 3rd century and been formally reorganized under 
       Diocletian and Constantine, the limitanei guarded the 
       frontiers, while the comitatenses provided mobile armies 
       that were fielded against external enemies and internal 
       threats. The transformation of the early imperial army to 
       the late antique army is documented in the rich array of 
       texts from the period, supplemented by a perhaps 
       surprisingly rich archaeological record. [Elib]
