This military unit had an important role in the province of Dacia. The ala II Pannoniorum was a cavalry auxiliary unit, having the size of a quingenaria. Sometimes it bears also the name 'veterana'. One cannot tell precisely when and why this epitheton was added, but it seems that it was mostly ignored. Several times the ala is called Gallorum et Pannoniorum too, in different moments and apparently without a rule. No explanation was offered. The early history of the unit is rather unknown. It was founded sometime in the first half of the 1st century A. D., in Pannonia. Mostly consisting of Pannonian provincials, it received gradually more and more Roman citizens as well. In the second half of the century, the unit acted in Syria; later one can meet it at the Danube, in Upper Moesia. This movement was somehow connected to the Dacian war of Domitian.
