I recently destroyed a unit of Legionary 1st Cohorts and a pop up said that the eagle is taken to my settlement of Byzantium but I can’t seem to find it in that settlement.
So what effect does a captured eagle have on one’s settlement?
What will Rome do about it?

it does nothing but give the commanding general +1 to command, also rome will send hordes after byzantium to recapture the eagle.
can you offer it back to the romans as a diplomacy option?
How in the heck they got the 1st Legionary!!! I want it!! :(

I'm not sure about giving a legionary eagle back in diplomacy as an option in itself, but I suppose you could give them the city as a gift, then immediately re-occupy it. That may allow the eagle to change hands.
Yah !
I checked you can't give the eagle back as a diplomacy option.

I think you can only get it though senate missions.
Bah after kissing senate's behind for about 20+ turns and maintaining full senate ranking, I have finally received the 1st Cohort. Seriously I was really surprised it happened. They told me to take Bostra, so I was like okay might as well, it was only 2 steps away from my huge invasion force. Took it, no problem and a message popped up. Okay prolly just another useless barb mercs, and then...... 1st Legionary Cohort!!!!
Now its time to use them against senate's armies...
