Career

  • Tribunus Plebis? 131 (Broughton MRR III) Expand
    • Omitted from the list of senators by the Censors (see above), perhaps in contravention of the Atinian plebiscite (see 149, Tribunes of the{501}Plebs, but it may be a bill of this Atinius), he threatened to throw the Censor Metellus from the Tarpeian rock, and when this was vetoed attempted to consecrate his property (Cic. Dom. 123; Liv. Per. 59; Plin. NH 7.143). (Broughton MRR I)
    • Tr. pl. 131 or 130. See MRR 1.500-501. Sumner (Orators 58) points out that while the lectio senatus in which Atinius had been passed over may be dated to 131, he was a colleague of C. Papirius Carbo in his tribunate, and should be dated with him in 130, against the evidence of Val. Max. 6.2.3 and in accord with the sequence of events in Liv. Per. 59. (Broughton MRR III)
    • p. 257-63 (Thommen 1989)

  • Praetor? 122 Asia (Broughton MRR III) Expand
    • Governor (Pr. or Propr.) of Asia before 90, possibly before 100 B. C. (I. v. Priene 121; see Magie, Roman Rule in Asia Minor 1579). (Broughton MRR II Appendix 2)
    • Some provincial cistophori of Ephesus are dated to year 13 and bear on the reverse in Latin letters the name C. Atin(ius) C. f. (see F. S. Kleiner, The Dated Cistophori of Ephesus, ANSMusN 18, 1972, 17-32, esp. 29-30; and now G. Stumpf, C. Atinius C. f., Praetor in Asia, 122-121 v. Chr. auf einem Kistophor, ZPE 61, 1985, 186-190). The era, known from later cistophori, began in 134-133 B.C., more probably, as K. J. Rigsby has shown (Phoenix 33, 1972, 39-47), with the grant of freedom to Ephesus by the will of Attalus III than from the organization of the province of Asia, while the number 13 dates this issue of cistophori to 122-121 B.C. The name in Latin letters, on the analogy of the names on later cistophori, must be that of the Roman praetorian governor of that year. This date opens the way, as Stumpf has shown, to identifying him with both the C. (Atinius) Labeo (3) (see above and MRR 2.462) named in I. Priene 121, lines 15-22 and C. Atinius Labeo Macerio (10), Tr. pl. 131 or 130 (see above). It also suggests that the Piso mentioned in I. Priene 121 may be the consul of 112, who was praetor ca. 115, that Hypsaeus may be a son of the consul of 125 and so praetor in Asia before 100, while M. Iunius Silanus Murena (170, and see above), a Murena adopted by a Iunius Silanus, held a quaestorship at the latest in the early nineties. (Broughton MRR III)
    • (MRR 2.465).Named in I. Priene 121, ll. 15-22, as governors of Asia to whom the honorand went as envoy, but the dates can be listed only as before 90, some perhaps even before 100. A second part of the inscription lists embassies to many cities, and a third includes one to King Seleucus, son of King Antiochus, to be dated either before his accession in 95 or else failing to recognize him as king. See Sumner, GRBS 19, 1978, 147-153; cf. I. Priene 551. (Broughton MRR III)
