6battle of arausio5/6/2023 Finally, for permission to reproduce photographs, I thank the British Museum and the E´cole Franc¸aise D’Athe`nes. Her love, support and encouragement have made the publication of this work both possible and worthwhile. Most importantly, I owe an immense debt to my wife, Olivia Westcott. Their unstinting encouragement and affection remain priceless. I will limit myself here to thanking my parents: June McCall, John McCall, John Pearson, and Andrea McCall. I owe greater thanks to more family members and friends than I can possible express. I also thank Jack Balcer for years of advice and for his great generosity as a teacher and a friend. The merits of this work are due in no small part to his efforts I alone bear the responsibility for the imperfections. Without his thoughtful criticism, patience, and friendship, this book simply would not have been possible. For years he has challenged my thinking and encouraged me to hone my skills as a historian. Therefore, I owe the greatest debt to my advisor, Nate Rosenstein. dissertation at the Ohio State University. 1 0 0937-dc21ġ Cavalry service and elite reputations: the problem of the citizen cavalry’s disappearanceĢ Assessing the Roman cavalry’s military effectivenessĥ Combat motivation: cavalry service and elite reputationsĦ Dating the disappearance of the citizen cavalry corpsħ Alternative sources of prestige and the end of citizen cavalry serviceġ37 Diagrams of the battles of Cannae and ZamaĪppendix 2 Roman cavalry formations: some considerationsĪppendix 3 The size of the cavalry class and the burden of cavalry service before the Social War Includes bibliographical references and index.
