In addition, while the Scholae were garrisoned throughout Thrace and Bithynia, the Excubitors were billeted in the imperial palace itself and formed practically the only garrison of Constantinople in the 6th century.
Selain itu, sementara Scholae ditempatkan di seluruh Trakia dan Bitinia, para Excubitor ditempatkan di istana kekaisaran itu sendiri dan membentuk praktis satu-satunya garnisun Konstantinopel pada abad ke-6.
