Hacemos un repaso general a la guarnición romana en Egipto durante la época imperial, evaluando la importancia que tenían las tropas allí estacionadas en la defensa de la provincia, que se pone en relación con la estrategia imperial del llamado limes Arabicus. El número de tropas y los campamentos se adecuan en cada momento a las necesidades estratégicas y a las reformas políticoadministrativas que dividen provincias y cambian las fronteras interiores.
