What award did Caesar receive for his actions at Miletus?

Answer 1

During the course of the siege of Miletus, Caesar showed such personal bravery in saving the lives of legionaries that he was later awarded the corona civica (civic crown). This was a chaplet of oak leaves woven to form a crown. It was the second highest military decoration after the corona graminea or obsidionalis (the grass crown). When the civic crown was worn in the presence of the Senate, the senators had to stand and applaud.
