Sentences with PILUS (3)
Out of these sixty centurions of a legion, the two commanding the _primus pilus_ (they themselves also were called, like their companies, _primi pili_) were the first in rank, and again the _ductor prioris centuriae primi pili_ was the principal centurion in a legion.
This band of thirty companies they called antepilani, because there were fifteen others placed behind them with the standards; of which each company consisted of three divisions, and the first division of each they called a pilus.
For the most part the centurions were promoted from the ranks: they were arranged in a complicated order of seniority; the senior centurion of the legion (_primus pilus_) was an officer of very high importance.
