Praetor before 59 (Broughton MRR II) Expand
- Suet. Aug. 4, Praetor before 59; cf. Cic. Att. 2.12.1; Phil. 3.16. Klein (240f., no. 54) suggests that he became a governor of Sardinia. (Broughton MRR II)
- Pr. 60. In MRR 2.183, correct the gentilicium to M. Atius Balbus, the form which appears in inscriptions of Aricia (see CIL 14.2179, 2180), and is right for the maternal grandfather of Augustus (RS, CP). Wiseman, NM 216, no. 56, is sceptical of Suet. Aug. 4; cf. Cic. Phil. 3.16. See also Historia 14, 1965, 333-334, and Shackleton Bailey, CLA 1.374, on Att. 2.12.1. (Broughton MRR III)
