Ostrogothic Kingdom (The Last Roman) Spear Infantry

Domestici

In any hierarchical society, the protection of the leader - be they emperor or king - is of utmost importance. Only the most seasoned troops were chosen to join the ruler's personal guard. Originally, the Romans conferred this title in a ceremony that involved wearing the Emperor's priceless purple robes. To be a 'domestici' was a prestigious position and the path to further accolades; from here it was possible to eventually lead your own military regiment. The works of Ammianus Marcellinus, who served as a domestici in the Roman Empire, are extensive sources from late antiquity; he chronicled much of Roman history from AD96 until the time of Constantine the Great.
