A Study of the Cognomina of Soldiers in the Roman Legions by Lindley Richard Dean is a scholarly work that explores the use and significance of cognomina, or nicknames, among soldiers in the Roman legions. The book provides a detailed analysis of the various types of cognomina used by Roman soldiers, including those based on physical appearance, place of origin, military achievements, and personal characteristics. Dean also examines the social and cultural context in which these nicknames were used, shedding light on the complex hierarchy and social dynamics of the Roman army. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, including inscriptions, literary texts, and archaeological evidence, this book offers a comprehensive and insightful study of an important aspect of Roman military culture. It will be of interest to scholars and students of ancient history, classics, and military studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
