Hyginus Gromaticus, De munitionibus castrorum, http://www.intratext.com/X/LAT0347.htm; Flavius Vegetius Renatus, Epitoma rei militaris; and the Emperor Maurice, Strategikon, http://www.upenn.edu/pennpress/book/13410.html, remain the only three basic texts of strategy and tactics arising from ancient Roman military practice (pp. 28-31).
