Why is there a date in the title? Is there another Battle of the Allia that needs to be disambiguated from this? Adam Bishop 18:36, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I can't find any other - seems like a randomness to fix. Stan 03:58, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Triarii rich?

I don't think that what is mentioned in this sentence is correct:" Now the richer citizens, who made up the triarii would be safer as a reserve, leaving the main fighting to younger men."

It was the cavalry that was made up by the richer citizens. The triarii were made up by the old men as far as I know. I have no sources so I would be obliged if someone else could back up my story.
