comitatenses : ウィキペディア英語版 | comitatenses
The comitatenses and later the palatini were the units of the field armies of the late Roman Empire. ==Terminology==
Comitatenses is the Latin plural of comitatensis, originally the adjective derived from ''comitatus'' ('company, party, suite'; in this military context it came to the novel meaning of 'the field army'), itself rooted in ''Comes'' ('companion', but hence specific historical meanings, military and civilian). However, historically it became the accepted (substantivated) name for those Roman imperial troops (legions and auxiliary) which were not merely garrisoned at a limes (fortified border, on the Rhine and Danube in Europe and near Persia and the desert tribes elsewhere) — the ''limitanei'' or ''ripenses'', i.e. 'along the shores' — but more mobile line troops; furthermore there were second line troops, named ''pseudocomitatensis'', former limitanei attached to the comitatus; ''palatini'', elite ("palace") units typically assigned to the ''magister militum''; and the ''scholae palatinae'' of actual palace guards, usually under the ''magister officiorum'', a senior court official of the Late Empire.
