Pezhetairos

Ancient Macedonian soldiers

The pezhetairoi (Greek: πεζέταιροι, singular: pezhetairos) were the backbone of the Macedonian army and Diadochi kingdoms. They were literally called "foot companions" (in Greek, pezos means "pedestrian" and hetairos means "companion" or "friend"). The Macedonian phalanxes were made up almost entirely of pezhetairoi.

From Wikipedia

The pezhetairoi (Greek: πεζέταιροι, singular: pezhetairos) were the backbone of the Macedonian army and Diadochi kingdoms. They were literally called "foot companions" (in Greek, pezos means "pedestrian" and hetairos means "companion" or "friend"). The Macedonian phalanxes were made up almost entirely of pezhetairoi. Pezhetairoi were very effective against both enemy cavalry and infantry, as their long pikes could be used to impale enemies charging on horseback or to keep enemy infantry with shorter weapons at bay.
