About Praefectus vigilum
The praefectus vigilum was, starting with the reign of the Emperor Augustus, the commander of the city guards in Rome, who were responsible for maintaining peace and order at night--a kind of fire and security police. Although less important than the other prefects, the office was considered a first step in order to reach an important position in the imperial administration.
