I know they are currency, but that's all. I am currently reading about the property qualifications for military service in the late republic and just got seriously confused. Numbers aren't my thing can't make sense of what is going on. Can some one explain the differences, conversions, other important facts?
If you're wondering what exactly I'm confused by, it's J.W. Rich's 'The supposed Roman manpower shortage of the later second century BC', V. The Property Qualifications of the Census Classes.
