Acts 10:1 Now *there was a certain man in Caesarea, named Cornelius, a centurion of the band, which is called the Italian,

about the year A.D. 39. A cohort, with the Romans, was a body of infantry 500 strong. There were ten cohorts in each legion. There were, generally speaking, two centurions appointed to the command of each cohort. (Bible de Vence)
