There is a separate group of Pezheteroi called Asthetairoi (singular Asthetairos). There is a debate as it is not fully clear what the prefix asth- (Greek: ασθ-) is referring to. Some claim it comes from asty (= city) or asthoi (= townsmen), which would mean the Asthetairoi were recruited from cities. But the units referred to as Asthetairoi where recruited in northern Macedonia, where there are just a few cities. Another suggestion is that asth- comes from aristoi (= the best) and thus implying they were some kind of elite. This would correspond to the fact that they were placed on the right side next to the hypaspists. The common conception is that Asthetairoi means 'closest companion' in terms of kinship and designated units from Upper Macedonia. Another explanation is that 'close' is referring to their position in battle, as they were the closest to the king. For fighting near the Hypaspists it is possible that they were better trained and equipped than normal Pezheteroi. | There is a separate group of Pezheteroi called Asthetairoi (singular Asthetairos).

I pezeteri erano le unità di fanteria pesante armate con la sarissa, la picca macedone lunga oltre 5 metri (più di 12 cubiti secondo Teofrasto, all'inizio, per poi crescere successivamente fino a superare i 16 cubiti di lunghezza). Costituivano il cuore della falange, nel centro dello schieramento dell'esercito macedone. | I pezeteri erano le unità di fanteria pesante armate con la sarissa, la picca macedone lunga oltre 5 metri (più di 12 cubiti secondo Teofrasto, all'inizio, per poi crescere successivamente fino a superare i 16 cubiti di lunghezza).
