A comitatus relationship is an ancient term used for the first time in the epoch of the Roman Empire. It refers to the special relationship that rulers had with their servants that protected him. Later, in Anglo-Saxon stories, the term meant the respected relationships between the ruler and its thanes or personal guards, in Scotland. The relationship could be positive, instilling respect in people or it could be negative, instilling fear. In the case of Beowulf, the relationship is based on respect and honor.
