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)
