Support : I wrote this article, and also Late Roman army, and all the sources I used refer to the Battle of Strasbourg EraNavigator (talk) 10:11, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Support. Argentoratum would be acceptable, but the current title is not. Srnec (talk) 06:28, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

Any additional comments:

Ammianus and Zosimus would use Argentorate, the name Strateburgum appeared in 6th century AD. Scholar works here are secondary sources, though Battle of Argentorate may sound a bit odd. --Brand спойт 12:00, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
