It is argued in the article that Emona was never a camp of the 15th legion. Although some veterans were settled in the town, it cannot be considered a typical veteran colony. The arguments are based on the epigraphic evidence as well as on data from Greek and Latin (historical) literature and recently discovered archaeological sites and material.
