	Praetorian Guard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term "Praetorian" came from the tent of the commanding general or praetor of a Roman army in the field—the praetorium.
		The final act of the Praetorians in imperial history started in 306, when Maxentius, son of the retired emperor Maximian, was passed over as a successor: the troops took matters into their own hands and elevated him to the position of emperor in Italy on October 28.
		As conceived by Augustus, the Praetorian cohorts totaled around 9,000 men, recruited from the legions of the regular army or drawn from the most deserving youths in Etruria, Umbria, and Latium (three provinces in central Italy).

	Praetorian Guard
		Praetorians on guard in the imperial palace on the Palatine Hill went about their protective duties clothed in the classic Roman toga, which lent the Guardsmen an air of tradition, while the toga itself would serve to hide their belted sidearms under its voluminous woolen folds.
		Praetorian standard-bearers (signiferi) wore lion-skins over their helmets instead of the legionary bearskins, while Praetorian standards (signa) differed noticeably from their legionary equivalents, incorporating images (imagines) of the emperor as well as crowns and other unit decorations for valor.
		The occurrence of eagles on Praetorian signa indicates that the aquiline symbol was not necessarily limited to legionary use (e.g., the aquila eagle-standard that was a legion’s focal totem).

	Praetorian Guard
		The Praetorian Guard was formed by the emperor Augustus to help prevent assassins from reaching the emperor and murdering him as Brutus and his companions had murdered Julius Caesar.
		The primary role of the Praetorians was to act as a bodyguard to the emperor and serve as a police force in the city.
		The Praetorians soon became the most powerful body in the state, and like the janissaries at Constantinople, frequently deposed and elevated emperors according to their pleasure.

		The term "Praetorian" came from the tent of the legatus of a legion in the field—the praetorium.
		Two new corps, the Jovians and Herculians (named after the gods Iove=Iuppiter and Hercules, associated with the senior and junior emperor), replaced the Praetorians as the personal protectors of the emperors, a practice that remained intact with the tetrarchy.
		In common language, the phrase "praetorian guard(s)" designates an exclusive, unconditionally loyal group personally attached to powerful people, especially dictators such as Adolf Hitler's SS troops or Romania's communist leader Ceaucescu's Securitate (secret police).

		The praetorian prefect was commander of the Praetorian Guard until Constantine abolished it in 314.
		Praetorian prefects continued to be appointed until the reign of Heraclius, but the office developed into head of the civil and judicial administration of the empire.
		Further, the praetorian praefect acquired, in addition to his military functions, a criminal jurisdiction, which he exercised not as the delegate but as the representative of the emperor, and hence it was decreed by Constantine 331 that from the sentence of the praetorian praefect there should be no appeal.
