Ostrogothic Kingdom (The Last Roman) Melee Cavalry

Comes

‘Comites’ were trusted, high-ranking military and administrative figures who ran aspects of the Roman Empire in its ruler's stead. After the fall of Western Rome, the rank remained in use within the barbarian kingdoms that followed. ‘Comes’ – the singular - is Latin for ‘companion’ and used here in direct reference to the companions of Alexander the Great, the most trusted lieutenants of the greatest military leader the ancient world had ever seen. Comites were the leading officials amongst the ruler's inner circle, occupying a great variety of administrative and military offices. In the Roman Empire, this ranged from the ‘Comes Britanniarum’, who was in charge of Roman Britain’s defence, to the ‘Comes Sacrae Vestis’ – the vitally important master of the Emperor’s wardrobe!
