Career

  • Quindecemvir Sacris Faciundis? c. 69 (Broughton MRR II) Expand
    • Symbols of the Quindecimvirate on his coins, ca. 69 B.C. (Grueber, CRRBM 1. 432f.; cf. Mommsen, RMW 641, no. 289). (Broughton MRR II)
    • Pr. 49 Perhaps a Quindecimvir. See coins with the type of the Sibyl and the tripod, dated by Grueber about 69 (CRRBM 1.432f.). (Broughton MRR II Appendix 2)
  • Quindecemvir Sacris Faciundis 65 to 46 (Rüpke 2005)
  • Monetalis 65 (RRC) Expand
    • ref. 411 (RRC)
  • Praetor? 50 (Broughton MRR III) Expand
    • Pr. 50 or 49. Monetalis, Xvvir s. f. His coins, dated to 65 by Sydenham (see MRR 2.445) and Crawford (RRC 1.439, no. 411), wrongly to 69 in MRR 2.135, bear the symbols of the Quindecimvirate, and may refer to his own priesthood. Cicero (Sulla 24) implies that he was a candidate for some office in 62 against considerable rivalry (Sumner, Orators 139-140). Pr. 5O or 49. MRR 2.257. Because Cicero omits the title praetor in Att. 8.1113, Shackleton Bailey doubts that he is correctly called praetor in 49 by Caesar in BC 1.24.2-3 (CLA 4.342f.). (Broughton MRR III)
  • Praetor? 49 (Broughton MRR II) Expand
    • Caes. BC 1.24.2-3; cf. Cic. Att. 9.8.1. A Pr. Designate in Cic. Fin. 2.74. See also Cic. Att. 7.12.4; 8.11B.1. (Broughton MRR II)

  • Propraetor 48 Macedonia (Broughton MRR II) Expand
    • Probably Propraetor (Dio 41.43.2-3). Pompey placed him in command of Oricum (Caes. BC 3.11.3-4), and he'held command of the section of Pompey's force that broke through Caesar's siege works at Dyrrachium (Lucan 6.285-313, and Schol. Bern. p. 199 Usener; Oros. 6.15.19-21; cf. Caes. BC 3.64-72). (Broughton MRR II)

    • He probably retained his imperium in Africa (see 48, and 46, Promagistrates). (Broughton MRR II)
  • Promagistrate 46 Africa (Broughton MRR II) Expand
    • Probably continued in his rank (see 48, Promagistrates). Died with Metellus Scipio in Africa (Bell. Afr. 96.1; Oros. 6.16.5; cf. Cic. Att. 13.19.4; Brut. 265-266). (Broughton MRR II)
