Career

  • 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)
  • Dictator 362 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • On the name of Claudius, see Fast. Cap. for 403 and 349, and Degrassi 98 on 403. Against the editors of Act. Tr. in CIL 1(2).1, pp. 44 and 170, Degrassi would refer the fragmentary notice (NOV) of the date of a triumph to that of Camillus in 367, not to a putative triumph of Claudius in this year. The space lost in the previous lacuna, 27 lines, could hardly have contained 14 triumphs in any case. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 7.6.12; Fast. Cap. ([- - - -Cr]assus Inregillensis); Degrassi 34f., 104, 400f. Appointed after Genucius was killed, he won a costly victory over the Hernici (Liv. 7.7-8). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Triumphator? 362 (Itgenshorst 2005) Expand
    • Triumph? de Herniceis. Itgenshorst p.263 (triumphus incertus). Not listed in MRR or Rich. (Itgenshorst 2005)
  • Consul 349 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Furius was a son of the hero Camillus. Of Claudius' name Fast. Cap. preserves: [Ap. Cl]audius P. f. A[p. n. Crass., I]nrigil[lens(is)]. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 7.24.11; Fast. Cap. (see note 1); Cic. Sen. 41; Chr. 354 (Camello et Crasso); Fast. Hyd. (Camillo et Crasso), so also Chr. Pasc.; Cassiod.; Degrassi 34f., 106, 406f. The aged Claudius died in office (Liv. 7.25.10). Camillus successfully fought the Gauls in Latium (see Tribunes of the Soldiers), but could not come to grips with Greek pirates (Liv. 7.25-26; Claud. Quad., fr. 12 Peter; Dion. Hal. 15.1; Frontin. Str. 2.6.1; App. Celt. 1.2; Eutrop. 2.6; Auct. Vir. Ill. 29; cf. Polyb. 2.18). (Broughton MRR I)
