  • Logos 2019, p. 8. In the chapter 31 DAI the description: «[Ἰστέον] ὅτι ἡ βαπτισμένη Χρωβατία ἐκβάλλει καβαλλαρικὸν ἕως τῶν ξ’ ᾷᾷ [ἀλλάγια], πεζικὸν δὲ ἕως χιλιάδας ρ’ ...», should be translated as: “[Should know] to Baptized Croatia flows into and spreading cavalry up to 60 alagias [military unit called alagia = 50-400 cavalrymen] and infantry up to 100 thousand [military unit called “thousand” in the 10th century = 400-1,000 infantrymen] ...” The writer of DAI described probably (the basic and smallest alagias, and the smallest “thousand”) up to 3,000 cavalrymen, up to 40,000 infantrymen (and up to 4,700 sailors). In this description, verb «εκβάλλω» (flows into and spreading) show a possibility that two different armies were merged. Оne army, « εκβάλλω», flows into Croatia from Serbia in 924, while the other army belonged to Croatia..
