Historical Background

While a speculator refers to something different in modern Western society, a Speculator in the Roman army referred to a scout or a spy. In the Prætorian Guard, a speculator (Speculator Augusti) served as a cavalry officer who served as a bodyguard to the Emperor as well as an executioner of people put before the Emperor with a death sentence the Emperor is to decide upon.
