Abstrakt(y)
This paper examines the data structure of surviving Roman pridianum-type documents. These reports record the current status of a cohort and the changes since the previous report. Two pridiana and an interim report survive in a condition suitable for detailed analysis, and a further document, although fragmentary, also merits examination. Although no contemporary sources on data-recording practices in the Roman army have survived, the analysis of the extant documents reveals regularities that clearly indicate a deliberate organisation of statistical data.
