vestitor
The ''vestitor'', Hellenized as ''vestētōr'' ((ギリシア語:βεστήτωρ)) was a lowly Byzantine palace position and rank.
As their name suggests, the ''vestitores'' were originally officials of the imperial wardrobe (Latin: ''vestiarium'', adopted into Greek as ''vestiarion''), and are first attested as such in the 6th century.〔.〕 By the 9th century, the title had also become an honorary dignity (δια βραβείου άξια, ''dia brabeiou axia'') intended for "bearded men" (i.e. non-eunuchs), marked in the ''Klētorologion'' of 899 as the third-lowest of the imperial hierarchy, coming between the ''silentiarios'' and the ''mandatōr'' (both also classes of palace officials). Its distinctive insignia was a ''fiblatorium'', a cloak fastened by a ''fibula'' brooch.〔.〕
According to the ''Klētorologion'', together with the ''silentiarioi'', the ''vestētores'' were under the command of the court official known as the ''epi tēs katastaseōs''. The later ''De Ceremoniis'' of Emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogennetos (r. 913–959) indicates that they assisted the ''praipositos'' in dressing the Byzantine emperor, while the chronicler Theophanes the Confessor calls them wardens of the imperial crown.〔.〕 From sigillographic evidence, in the 9th century the rank was held by senior provincial officials, i.e. ''prōtonotarioi'' (heads of the civil administration) and ''kommerkiarioi'' (customs officials) of the themes. The term last occurs in the 10th century.〔
