[edit] anachronism?

From its name I would think it a Meros (Merẽ)/Turma. From its commander's title its a Drungus/Chilliarchy and from its unit tree half the Imperial Tagmata. Could this be a modern term that the author used to identify a portion of the Byzantine military administration?What ever it is it needs attention. Opinions and information is greatly appreaciated. --Dryzen 13:03, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Other than for our own article (to be found on many other sites) I can`t find a web mention of this type of formation.--Dryzen 13:42, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
Does anyone mind if I delete this or change it to Meros?--Dryzen 13:28, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Proposed move

I propose moving Moirae (military) --> Meros, a more common (in english literature such as Treagold or Haldon) name for what seems to be the same Byzantine formation. --Dryzen 18:00, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Survey

Add "* Support" or "* Oppose" followed by an optional one-sentence explanation, then sign your opinion with ~~~~

  • As the presenter of this move I support, due to too many inconsistancies (includint the title) within the article prior ot displacement.--Dryzen 19:22, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
