About the time of Camillus, the Romans introduced the more open order of " maniples.^^ When drawn up in order of battle, the legion was arranged in three lines: first, the hasta'ti, made up of young men; second, the prin'cipes, composed of the more experienced soldiers; and, third, the tria'rii, which comprised the veterans, capable of supporting the other two lines. Each line was composed of ten maniples, those of the first two lines consisting of one hundred and twenty men each, and those of ...the third line consisting of sixty men each; the maniples, or companies, in each line were so arranged that they were op- posite the spaces in the next line, as follows: 1. Eastati 2. Principes 3. Triarii - This arrangement enabled the companies in front to retreat into the spaces in the rear, or the companies in the rear to advance to the spaces in front. Behind the third line usually fought the light-armed and less experienced soldiers (rorarii and accensi). Each maniple carried its own ensign; and the legion carried a standard surmounted with a silver eagle.
