Evocati Augusti

Due to being evocati, soldiers who had re-enlisted after serving their 16 years, of the Praetorian Guard, they were the only evocati allowed to use the adjective of "imperial" (augusti).^[1] Unlike the regular evocati, it appears that evocati augusti were hand-picked by the Emperor, rather than it being open for all.^[2] Many evocati augusti went on to be centurions in the regular legions, and beyond.^[3]
