I did NOT use this as a Latin-English dictionary - I was linked here from the Wiki page on the Battle of Adrianople. To me this rejects the pretense of the "cuasus deletorum". Came hoping to find more detail than are present, but I'll take what I can get.

21/08/06 AE, London UK - Am hoping to expand once I get my hands on such sources as John Haldon's book and also some of the Osprey Men At Arms series. Others with knowledge please add. www.grippingbeast.com has some pretty models of Byzantine extra heavy cavalry.

[edit] Going to redirect to "Scholae Palatinae"

Going to redirect the article to "Scholae Palatinae" - the contents of Scholae article are highly questionable and filled with unfulfilled requests for cites going back to at least August 06. 2 of 3 paragraphs also seemingly talk about the Tagmata rather than Scholae Palatinae in any case, which is a Byzantine rather than Roman institution, and in an case already has a full article at Tagmata. Can't see any reason for keeping this article whatsoever but feel free to revert if you feel this redirect is in error. - PocklingtonDan 17:21, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

That is something different. There were different kinds of scholae, also the non-military, so there must be a page explaining this. Reverted and added to from some Encyclopadiae. --Flammingo^Parliament 19:50, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Chill out PocklingtonDan, It was a work in progress (as my original comment was made), and look at the original before I attempted my first wiki entry addition. My intent was the Tagmata regiment called the Scholae. It's not like wiki is my life work or raison d'etre, just didn't finish it, so what? AE London 5th January 2006

I changed "Scholae WAS a Latin word used by the Romans" to "Scholae IS a latin word that was used by the Romans", because Scholae is STILL a Latin word. The language still exists.

[edit] Changed some Simple Wording

I changed "Scholae WAS a Latin word used by the Romans" to "Scholae IS a latin word that was used by the Romans", because Scholae is STILL a Latin word. The language still exists.
