Image Thebaei shield pattern.svg thumb 200px Thebaei unit shield pattern, according to Notitia dignitatum . The Legio I Maximiana of Maximian was a comitatensis Roman legion , probably created in the year 296 or 297 by the Emperor Diocletian . The I Maximiana was formed together with Legio II Flavia Constantia II Flavia Constantia , to garrison the newly created province Thebaid Thebaidos , in Aegyptus province Aegyptus . The legion is also known as Maximiana Thebanorum or Thebaeorum Maximian legion of the Thebans . Since no Legio I Maximiana is listed as being stationed at Thebes, Egypt Thebes in the Notitia Dignitatum , the designation is interpreted more broadly as of the Thebaid in general. The cognomen Maximiana originated from Maximian , Diocletian s colleague. In 354, I Maximiana was in Thrace, in the neighborhood of Adrianople modern Edirne . Thus it is likely that it fought in the Battle of Adrianople , in 378, when emperor Valens was defeated by Goths . According to Notitia Dignitatum , the I Maximiana Thebanorum was still under Thracian command magister militum per Thracias at the beginning of the 5th century, while the I Maximiana was in Philae Egypt, south of Aswan , under the dux Thebaidos . There exists also a purely legendary Theban Legion in the legend of Saint Maurice from the 5th century. According to that tradition, this Prima Maximiana Thebanorum was a legion from Thebes that was ordered to move by Maximian. Thus it is sometimes related to I Maximiana Thebanorum . However, according to tradition, the Theban Legion of Saint Maurice was martyred in 286, while the I Maximiana was not founded until ten years later. See also List of Roman legions .

For the Roman Catholic diocese Diocese of Rome A Roman or civil diocese lang la d c s s , from the lang el , administration was one of the administrative divisions of the later Roman Empire , starting with the Tetrarchy . It formed the intermediate level of government, grouping several Roman provinces provinces and being in turn subordinated to a praetorian prefecture . History Civil dioceses The earliest use of diocese as an administrative unit was in the Greek speaking East. Three districts&mdash Cibyra , Apamea and Synnada &mdash were added to the province of Cilicia in the time of Cicero , who mentions the fact in his familiar letters EB 1911 . The word diocese , which at that time was equivalent to a tax collecting district, came to be applied to the territory itself. The reorganization of the Roman Empire known as Tetrarchy was initiated by Emperor Diocletian in the 290s. He divided the existing Roman province provinces into smaller, more compact and easily controllable units, with a greatly increased bureaucracy. The provinces were in turn grouped into twelve dioceses, each headed by a vicarius dioeceseos , i.e. a vicar representative of the praetorian prefect , the Empire s chief civil and military official and senior aide to an emperor. Under the tetrarchic system, each of the two senior emperors Augustus honorific Augusti had a praetorian prefect. The largest diocese, Diocese of the East Oriens , included sixteen provinces, and the smallest, Diocese of Britain Britannia , comprised only four provinces. After the establishment of definite praetorian prefecture s in the mid 4th century, the dioceses functioned as the intermediate level between the province and the prefecture, although the hierarchy was not rigid provincial governors could appeal directly to the praetorian prefect or the emperor, and vice versa. In the West, the dioceses were disbanded as Roman power receded, but in the East, they survived. Seeing their role as somewhat ineffectual ... more details
