Speculatores
Speculatores
"Speculatores-- The covert agents, the "secret agents", of the Late Roman Republic (during the Roman Empire these evolve into a secret police force serving the Emperor as well. During the Principate and the Empire, speculatores also refer to specific groups and ranks in the Roman army that have nothing to do with spying .)
Speculatores might be soldiers, citizens, slaves, etc. In short, anyone who might be able to infiltrate enemy towns and positions, while doing so undetected. They might infiltrate enemy positions by posing as deserters, refugees, merchants, and so on."
