In the middle ages and in the days of chivalry, excellent was the same as Squire. The current spelling is armigero.Thus we read in the Temple or Knights Templar soldiers rule that each Knight had two armigeros to take care of himself and his horses. In some countries the barons, Abbots and large overlords used to have one or more armigeros companies to guard their people and other armigeros in addition to guard their forests and medicine and have covered his country and mainly its borders from incursions and raids of evildoers and troops from neighbouring countries. These last armigeros used to form evil-doers and bandits from other countries who had come to be covered in the pursuit of their respective justices. The armigeros were part of the infantry carrying their Lords to their orders when the Crusades were the conquest of Palestine.
