Abstract: It is suggested that cohors I Fida Vardullorum was the garrison of Castlecary in Antonine I, when it had a detachment serving elsewhere, and cohors I Tungrorum the Antonine II garrison following the return of its vexillation from Noricum. Cohors I Baetasiorum is proposed as the Antonine I garrison at Bar Hill and the Antonine II garrison at Old Kilpatrick. The altar found in 1969 at Old Kilpatrick may point to the arrival of reinforcements for the army of Britain from the Danube in the early 160s, supporting existing evidence for such moves in the 150s and 160s. RIB 2152 and 2335 may refer to one or two milliary cohorts raised in Britain by Antoninus Pius. D J B
