PEDIS'EQUI. Slaves of both sexes, whose duty it was to attend upon their masters and mistresses whenever they went abroad. They formed a distinct class, and had peculiar services for their own to perform, different for instance, from the anteambulones and nomenclatores, who were not pedisequi, though they likewise followed their masters abroad. Nepos, Att. 13. Plaut. As. i. 3. 32.
