During the Roman Republic Period, the "TRIARII" were soldiers who formed the third and final line of infantry of the "Roman Legion" army unit. They were the most experienced men in the army and carried the best equipment. If the prior lines of infantry did not succeed, they would retire behind the "TRIARII", who would engage the enemy in turn - hence the proverb "It has come to the TRIARII", signa
ling a situation of serious crisis. The TRIARII were the elite forces, designed to act on critical and decisive moments.
