How many unknowns are in the Tomb of the Unknown and which wars were they from?
The Tomb of the Unknown holds three soldiers, one each from WWI, WWII and Korea. The unknown soldier from Vietnam was later identified through DNA and was removed
Who is buried in the tomb of the unknown soldier?
An unknown soldier. No one knows his identity. This is actually a good question, in light of the fact DNA testing could tell so much. There have been a lot of arguments as to whether the soldiers should be disturbed and tested. According to Arlington National Cemetery, the remains of the Vietnam War's Unknown soldier were tested in 1998. Air Force 1st Lt. Michael Joseph Blassie was the Unknown Soldier. He was shot down near An Loc in 1972. The Vietnam grave is now currently empty and will likely remain so. As for other countries and the bodies from WW1 & 2 and Korea, no decision as to their testing has been made. This is a very touchy and emotional decision because to many the tombs are sacred. The Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery, Va. contains the remains of three (3) unknown military personnel, one each from WWI, WWII and Korea

What is the name for an ancient roman soldier?
There were 80 men in a Roman century. Many people mistake the word "century" as denoting 100, but the army's use of the term century was not based on the Latin word centum, meaning one hundred, but on the voting assemblies which were divided into centuries. In the old days, each century was responsible for a fixed number of fighting men. The army, being the army, kept the term "century" for its basic unit, and the term "centurion" for its commander, even though the number was 80.

Who is the Unknown Soldier?
Are you referring to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier? If so, it represents all of the soldiers who died in action that were not able to be identified. Because they don't know who they are, they can't contact family, but are still deserving of a burial with honors.AnswerThe US has four Unknown Soldiers; from World War 1, World War 2, Korea, and Vietnam. By the time it was decided to have an Unknown Solder from Vietnam, forensic science had progressed to the point that it was very difficult to find a dead US soldier who could not be identified, but one was finally found. Furthermore, it is now quite possible that the previous three Unknown Soldiers could be identified if the tomb was opened. As stated by the above answer, the Unknown Soldier represents US soldiers who were killed but not identifiable for traditional burial. If the question is asking about the exact identity of the Unknown Soldier, the word 'unknown' should be a clue.
Who cleaned up the dead of the civil war?
The dead was buried by the army for which they fought. Often it was in very shallow graves and there are reports that after a rain body parts were often seen sticking out of the graves. One of the big fears of a civil war soldier was not to be identified before being buried. Dog tags weren't invented yet, so they would write their name on a piece of paper and pinned it to their clothing hoping they would be identified.
