Career

  • Aedilis Curulis? before 43 (Broughton MRR III) Expand
    • Named as colleagues in an inscription found at Rome (CIL 12.2.2514ILS 6075) and dated probably in or before 44. (Broughton MRR II)
    • Aed. Cur. 44. Note that while the spelling in ILS 6075 favors a relatively early date, both Dessau and Münzer remain uncertain whether the aedile in question was the consul of 23 (RE no. 92) or his father (91). Reference to Terentius (2). Tr. pl. 54, is probably irrelevant, since a Varro Murena would hardly be referred to as simply Terentius. (TJC)[204] (Broughton MRR III)
  • Augur 31 (Broughton MRR II) Expand
    • A probable member of this college of priests about 31 B. C. In a number of instances the exact date when a priest became a member of his college is not known, and the conjecture is based on evidence of seniority such as the date of the consulship or some other office. The list of the Quindecimviri is based on Miss Hoffman's observation that the names listed in connection with the Saecular Games in 17 B. C. are arranged in the order of entrance into the college (see AJPh 73 [19521289-294). The names given below are drawn from Miss Hoffman's dissertation, The Membership of the Four Major Colleges of Priests from 44 B. C. to 37 A. D. (Bryn Mawr, 1951, available in microfilm). The vacancies caused by the civil wars and the proscriptions were promptly filled with partisans of Antony and Octavian or persons who were restored in 39 by the Treaty of Misenum, for in 36 Messalla Corvinus was added to the college as a supernumerary member. See Dio 48.36.4; 49.16.1; cf. 48.43.2. (Broughton MRR II)
    • Horace, Odes 3.19. Probably advanced early since he was a brother-in-law of Maecenas. See PIR 3.303, no. 74; De Laet no. 375. (Broughton MRR II)
