Historical background
The equites singulares Augusti were the mounted bodyguard of the Roman emperors, probably set up as a unit in Rome under Trajan. They were chosen from the best horsemen of the auxiliaries, at first mainly Batavians and other Germanic men. After they had fought for Maxentius in AD 312, Constantine disbanded them together with the Praetorians.
