Editing Battle of Adrianople (section)

===Order of battle of Valens' army===
It is not possible to precisely list the units of the Roman army at Adrianople. The only sources are Ammianus, who describes the battle but mentions few units by name, and the eastern {{Lang|la|[[Notitia Dignitatum]]}}, which lists Roman army units in the late 4th to early 5th century, after [[Theodosius I|Theodosius]]. Many units listed in the Balkans were formed after Adrianople; others were transferred from other parts of the Empire, before or after Adrianople; others are listed in two or more sectors. Some units at Adrianople may have been merged or disbanded due to their losses. The Roman forces consisted of heavy infantry, various archers and cavalry.<ref>Simon Macdowall, ''Adrianople Ad 378'', Osprey Publishing, 2001, {{ISBN|1-84176-147-8}}</ref>{{page needed|date=August 2020}}
