A quick definition of mace-bearer:

A mace-bearer is someone who carries a special stick called a mace in front of an important person, usually someone with a high rank. The mace is a heavy stick with a metal head that was used as a weapon in the past, but now it is used as a symbol of power and authority. It is also sometimes used by the police to stop bad people from doing bad things.

A more thorough explanation:

A mace-bearer is a person who carries a mace in front of an important official, usually someone of high rank. A mace is a weapon that was used in the past, consisting of a staff with a heavy metal head. Nowadays, a mace is used as an ornamental symbol of the dignity of an office, such as in Parliament or the U.S. House of Representatives.

  • In the House of Commons, the mace is placed on the table when the Speaker is in the chair.
  • In the U.S. House of Representatives, the mace is usually placed to the right of the Speaker and is carried upright by the sergeant-at-arms on special occasions, such as when there is a disturbance or when members need to be brought to order.

These examples illustrate how a mace is used as a symbol of authority and dignity in important settings. The mace-bearer is responsible for carrying the mace and presenting it before the official, emphasizing their importance and power.
