Career

  • Consul 410 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Aemilius' praenomen and cognomen are listed in the form given by Fast. Cap. on 405 and 401 (403 is not entire). Livy however has M. (Marcio E) while Diod. has {Gr}, and Livy elsewhere the cognomen Mamercus. Similarly, Valerius is assumed to be the Mil. Tr. of 415, 407 and 404, and the full name is given from Fast. Cap. on these years. In his case Livy and Diod. appear to be in full agreement. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 4.53.1; Diod. 13.76.1; Chr. 354 (Mamertino et Volusio); Fast. Hyd. (Aemilio et Rustico); Chr. Pasc. ({Gr}); Cassiod.; Degrassi 98. 378f. Celebrated an ovation for capturing Arx Carventana from the Aequi and the Volscians (Liv. 4.53; Degrassi 539). On Valerius, see Münzer, Gent. Val. 36, no. 5. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Triumphator? 410 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Ovation? de Aequeis et Volsceis. MRR I.77. Not listed in Itgenshorst or Rich. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 405 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Diod. gives the number as six, but omits Cincinnatus, Furius, and Aemilius; and has Mamilius for Manlius. On T. Quinctius see 421; he was Capitolini f. (Liv. 4.43.1). For Iulius' cognomen, see 489, note 1 (Tullus, Liv.; Iulus, Fast. Cap.). On Furius, see 413, note 1; the numeral in Livy is tertium. Livy's praenomen for Aemilius, M., is corrected to M'. as in Fast. Cap.; for his cognomen Livy has Mamercus. These magistrates are differently ordered in each of our three chief sources. Livy's order is followed above. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 4.61.1; Diod. 14.17.1; Fast. Cap. ([- -]) Iulus II; [- -Capit]olin. Barb[at.]; [- -Cinc]innatus II; the others entire, Furius with numeral II); Chr. 354 (Iulo II et Mamertino); Degrassi 28f., 98, 380f. These began the siege of Veii (Liv. 4.61.2). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 403 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Fast. Cap. preserves the following names: [- - - - -]ius Mam. f. M. n. M[amerc]in. II; [- - - Clau]dius P. f. Ap. n. [Crass]us; [- - Qui]nctilius L. f. L. n. [Var]us; M. Fur[ius-f.-n.] Fusus; L. Iuli[us Sp. f. Vopisci n.] Iulus; Val. entire, numeral III. Chr. 354 has Mamertino et Fuso. Fast. Cap. and Diod. indicate only six (Diod. lists five) Military Tribunes, while Livy mentions eight. In his list five names agree with those in the other sources, but he has M. Postumius for Furius Fusus, and his final two, Camillus and Postumius Albinus, appear in Fast. Cap., Val. Max. and Plutarch as Censors. Livy or his source has probably incorporated the Censors of this year in the list of Military Tribunes. Belcoh thinks that they were Military Tribunes with censorial powers (RG 77ff.). Substitution of M. Postumius for M. Furius is probably only a slip (RE, no. 60). (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 5.1.2; Diod. 14.35.1; Fast. Cap., note 1; Chr. 354; Degrassi 28f., 98, 380f. Claudius remained in charge at Rome while the rest were serving against Veii (Liv. 5.2.13-7.1). On Valerius, see Münzer, Gent. Val. 35, no. 4. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 401 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • The names are preserved entire as above in Fast. Cap. except [M.F]urius etc., [Cn. C]ornelius, etc., [L. Vale]rius, etc. On the mark of iteration after Camillus' name in Livy, see 403, note 1. M'. Aemilius, as usual, appears in Livy as M., and his cognomen as Mamercus (see 410). Iterum in Livy after Cossus' name is an error (see 406 and 404). As in 404, Livy has the praenomen C. for Fabius (see Conway and Walters ad loc.). In the name of Iulius the Iulus of Fast. Cap. and Livy's Tullus probably stand for an earlier Iullus (see 489, note 1). Diod. omits Valerius, but the following apocryphal name is found in F: {Gr}. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 5.10.1; Diod. 14.44.1; Fast. Cap. (see note 1); Chr. 354 (Camello et Iulo); Degrassi 28f., 98, 382f. Valerius held command against the{84} Volscians at Anxur (Liv. 5.10.2, and 12.6), Furius against Falerii (5.12.5), Aemilius at Veii (5.12.4), and Cornelius against Capena (5.12.5). On Valerius, see Münzer, Gent. Val. 35, no. 4. (Broughton MRR I)
