Career

  • Quaestor 145 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Cic. Att. 13.4.1. See 146, Legates, note 4. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Aedilis Curulis? c. 135 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • According to Cicero Tuditanus attained the curule magistracies legitimis annis. Thus he probably held the Aedileship, and as he was Praetor in 132, 135 is the latest date. If the practice of alternating pairs of patricians and plebeians still continued 136 would be the most probable one (Cichorius, Unters. Lucil. 235-237; Seidel 42f.). (Broughton MRR I)
    • Cic. Att. 13.32.3. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Cos. 129. Aed. Cur. 135. See MRR 1.489, 490, note 4. From Cic. Att. 13.32.3 it is clear that he attained his curule magistracies legitimis annis, but the aedileship is not proved. If he held it, 135 is the most probable year (Astin, Lex Annalis 9, notes 1-3). See Badian, Studies 145ff.; Sumner, Orators 46-47, 157, note 7, and cf. 6-10. Cos. 129. On his campaign against the Iapodes, the Bellum Histricum, see MRR 1.504, and now M. G. Morgan, Athenaeum 49, 1971, 271-301, and above, on T. Latinius Pandusa (6); cf. J. J. Wilkes, Dalmatia 32-33. On the Tuditanus inscription found at Duino in the Venezia, see M. G. Morgan, Philologus 117, 1973, 29-48, attributing to him victories over the Taurisci, Carni, and Liburni; cf. also CIL 1(2).652, and 2503; ILLRP 335, 334, resp.[190] (Broughton MRR III)
  • Praetor 132 Rome? (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Cic. Att. 13.30.2, and 32.3; cf. 13.6a. 4; perhaps named as a witness in Joseph. AJ 13.9.2, 260. (Broughton MRR I)
    • p. 741 (Brennan 2000)
  • Consul 129 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Cic. Rep. 1.14; ND 2.14; QF 3.5.1; Chr. 354 (Tuditano et Aquilino); Fast. Hyd. (Auditano et Anulio); Chr. Pasc. ({Gr}); Oros. 5.10.9; Cassiod.; Degrassi 126, 470f.; on Sempronius, Act. Tr. for 129; and on the filiation of Aquillius, Act. Tr. for 126. See also IGRP 4.262, and Passerini, Athenaeum 15 (1937) 252-283, the two copies, dated to this year, of the S.C. de agro Pergameno. To Sempronius were transferred the judicial functions of the Gracchan commission (App. BC 1.18-19), but he departed to campaign against the Iapydes, and returned to celebrate a triumph on Oct. 1 (Act. Tr., Degrassi 82f., 559; Liv. Per. 59; App. Illyr. 10; cf. CIL 1(2).2.652, 653; Plin. NH 3.129; Cichorius, Untersuch. Lucil. 190). Aquillius succeeded Perperna in Asia, and proceeded with the pacification and organization of the province (CIL 1(2).2.646-651; decree of Bargylia, Holleaux, REA 21 [1919] 1-19 (republished by L. Robert in Etudes d'epigraphie et d'histoire grecques 2.179-198); Strabo 14.1.38; Vell. 2.4.1; Iustin. 36.4.9-12; 37.1.1-2; 38.5.3; Flor. 1.35.7; Eutrop. 4.20; see 123, Tribunes of the Plebs, on the so-called Lex Aufeia).
