Rota (formation)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In late mediaeval Poland, a rota was an infantry or cavalry unit. It was known increasingly from the 16th century by the alternative name of Chorągiew.
After about 1630, the term was used to describe a file of 6-10 soldiers in formations (especially infantry) in the Polish army raised on the Foreign model.
