An excerptum from the Suda entry Σεβῆρος (σ 181 Adler) discusses Septimius Severus’s decision to allow “marriage” to Roman soldiers. The excerptum has been credited to John of Antioch, quoting Herodian; some lexical remarks would suggest a relationship between the excerptum and the work of Cassius Dio. The excerptum would confirm the interpretation of Septimius Severus’s decision, mostly as permission of cohabitation between women and soldiers, instead of marriage.
