  • Triumvir Agris Iudicandis Assignandis 130 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • After the deaths of Ap. Claudius and Crassus Mucianus (see 133-130), Fulvius Flaccus and Carbo succeeded to their places (CIL 1 .2.643-644; Liv. Per. 59; Vell. 2.6.4; Plut. CG 10.3; App. BC 1.18; Obseq. 28a; Auct. Vir. Ill. 65.4, with confusion of the names of Carbo and Crassus). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Triumvir Agris Iudicandis Assignandis 129 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Protests from the allies led Scipio Africanus to sponsor a measure to transfer the judicial functions of the commission to the Consul (App. BC 1.18-19; cf. FOR 1.120f., 240f.). Carbo and C. Gracchus, members of the commission, were suspected of responsibility for Scipio's sudden death (Cic. QF 2.3.3; De Or. 2.170; Mil. 16; Fat. 18; Fam. 9.21.3; Plut. CG 10.3-5). (Broughton MRR I)

Flaccus proposed bills to grant citizenship to Italians (Val. Max. 9.5.1; App. BC 1.21), and to grant them the right of appeal (Val. Max.), but to divert him he was sent to aid Massilia against the Salluvii and the Vocontii (Liv. Per. 60; App. BC 1.34; Plut. CG 15.1; Obseq. 30; see 123, Promagistrates). (Broughton MRR I)

  • Triumvir Agris Dandis Assignandis 123 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Carcopino (Autour des Gracques 277) believes that the Gracchan commission continued to function and, since he places the Rubrian law in 123, resolves the discrepancy between Appian (BC 1.23) and Plutarch (CG 10.3; 11.2) by having Fulvius go to Africa as a member of the commission in 123 and then stay in Rome while Gracchus in turn went to Africa in 122 (see 122, Tribunes of the Plebs). But it is probable that special commissions would be appointed for specific colonies; and it is not clear that the commission established by Tiberius Gracchus was involved. (Broughton MRR I)

    • Florus has confused this Flaccus with the Consul of 179. (Broughton MRR I)

    • A consular who became a Tribune and Gracchus' chief supporter. According to Appian (BC 1.24), he went to Africa to aid in founding Colonia Iunonia, but Plutarch (CG 10.3; 11.2) has him remain to oppose Livius in Rome. See also App. BC 1.21, and 34; and note 5. (Broughton MRR I)
