Best Answer

A Roman legion (army corps) had 5,320 infantrymen and 120 cavalrymen. In addition there were support men, such as catering men, supply men, engineers and the like. This was an ideal number. The actual numbers varied according to the requirements of a given military campaign. Sometimes the legions were undermanned
