- Protovestiar
- ♦ The title of a Byzantine palace official in charge of the imperial wardrobe. The title was taken over by the South Slavs. Though it is not certain what the functions of the Slavic protovestiars were, they seem to have been some sort of finanical official.(Fine, John V.A. Jr. The Late Medieval Balkans, 625)
