Career

  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 438 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • In Diod. Aemilius' name appears as {Gr}, and Iulius' praenomen as {Gr}. Degrassi (95) considers that in Fast. Cap. Iulius' praenomen was more probably C. than L. Either is possible, see 447 and 435, Consuls (C. Iulius), and 430, Consuls (L. Iulius). (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 4.16.7-17.1; Diod. 12.38.1; Chr. 354 (Fidenato et Cincinnato); Degrassi 95, 370f. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Magister Equitum 437 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Liv. 4.17.9, and 18.5. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Consul 428 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Diod. 12.77.1, listed between the colleges of 428 and 427. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 425 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Omission of Horatius' name by Diod. leads Mommsen (RF 2.228) and Münzer (RE) to conclude that his name is not authentic. On Furius' filiation, see Fast. Cap. on 405. For Quinctius Diodorus has {Gr}. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 4.35.1; Diod. 12.81.1; Chr. 354 (Arretino et Mevulliano); Degrassi 96, 374f. Under these Veii was granted a truce for twenty years, and the Aequi one for three (Liv. 4.35.2). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate? 420 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Livy (4.44.1) has the name of L. Quinctius with the numeral tertium, while in Fast. Cap. only the cognomen Cincinnatus and the number II is preserved. The Chronographer has merely the cognomen and the number III. Evidently the two brothers have been confused. The numeral II in Fast. Cap. points to Titus. On the name of Medullinus (with the praenomen Sex. in the best Mss of Livy), see 432 and 425. The number III in Fast. Cap. and iterum in Livy mark either a mistake in Livy, or, if Livy is correct, possibly an interchange of numbers between Quinctius and Furius on the stone; see Degrassi 96. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 4.44.1; Fast. Cap. ([- -] Cincinnatus II; [- -Me]dullinus III; M. Manl[ius- -]; A. Sempro[nius- -]); Chr. 354 (Cincinnato III et Vulso II); Degrassi 26f., 96, 376f. Sempronius presided over the election of Quaestors (Liv. 4.44.2-5). On T. Quinctius, see Lübker no. 4. (Broughton MRR I)
