A Roman centurion was a military officer. There were eleven grades or ranks of centurion so the title "centurion" covered a lot of officers. Incidentally, a centurion of the lowest rank commanded a "century" of 80 men, not the 100 men that is erroneously thought to have made up the century.A Roman centurion was a military officer.

The specific group of Roman soldiers that had 80 men was the century. It was led by the lowest ranking centurion. Sometimes because of the name "century" and being led by a "centurion" people erroneously think that there were 100 men in the group. This is incorrect. The words century/centurion came from the Roman voting assemblies called "centuria" not from the Latin word "centum" which means one hundred.
A centurion was an officer in the Roman army. As there were elven ranks of centurion, their responsibilities and duties differed. The lowest rank of centurion commanded a century which consisted of 80 men (not 100 men as is erroneously believed). The highest rank of centurion was the Camp Praefect who was third in command of a legion.
