I am suggesting that the term ordinarius came to denote a centurion, perhaps a senior centurion (primi ordines?) from some time in the third century. (I don't think there's anything very original about that!)
Nathan is there any papyrus or records I could research or need to know about displaying the term centurion ordinaries say after 325 AD? At the moment I am not sure where or what I should be investigating.
