Legio sexta decima Gallica (Sixteenth Gallic Legion) was a Roman legion. The legion was recruited by Octavian in 41/40 BC, and was disbanded after surrendering during the Batavian rebellion (70); Emperor Vespasian created a new legion, the XVI Flavia Firma. The emblem of the legion was probably a lion.
