What is it???

[edit]

The article doesn't give any info on what kind of a unit it is! Is it infantry or cavalry or what? Just saying it was an elite unit is not enough is it? 202.124.190.163 (talk) 11:38, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Alexiad

[edit]

The Immortals are spoken of by Anna Komnene in the Alexiad. They appear by her accounts to be Infantry and she goes on to say that that a requirment to be an Immortal is to live through at least one battle. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.246.199.200 (talk) 21:25, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
