Abstract

REB 47 1989 France p. 183-207 M.C. Bartusis, The Megala Allagia and the Tzaousios : Aspects of Provincial Military Organization in Late Byzantium. — After a survey of the use of the word allagion in the 13-15th centuries, the author argues that the Thessalonikaion, Serriotikon and Vizyetikon megala allagia were military units that included various types of soldiers and operated within large quasi-thematic regions during the second half of the 13th and first half of the 14th century. Further, the role of the tzaousios within a mega allagion is examined.
