Career

  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 394 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • According to Diod. There were only three Military Tribunes c. p. (14.97.1; and 15.2.1). On Medullinus' many magistracies, see RE no. 65; 413, note 1. Aemilius' name is completed from Fast. Cap. and Chr. 354 on 391. Postumius is probably a Censor of 380; see that year. Cornelius, now holding{91} the magistracy for the second time (Liv.), may be Scipio (RE 328; Mil. Tr. c. p. 395) or Cossus (120; Mil. Tr. c. p. 395) or Maluginensis (252; Mil. Tr. c. p. 397), preferably the last, though there are several examples in these times of persons who held this office in successive years. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 5.25.2; Diod. 14.97.1; 15.2.1; Fast. Cap. ([- -Camillu]s III); Chr. 354 (Camello III et Publicola); Degrassi 30f., 99f., 386f. Camillus reduced Falerii to surrender (Liv. 5.26.3-27.15; Dion. Hal. 13.1-2; Val. Max. 6.5.1; Plut. Cam. 9-11; Frontin. Str. 4.4.1; Polyaen. 8.7; Dio fr. 24; Eutrop. 1.20; Auct. Vir. Ill. 23; Zon. 7.21; cf. Diod. 14.96.5, and 98.5); while Aemilius and Postumius operated against the Aequi (Liv. 5.28.6-13; cf. Diod. 14.98.5). On Valerius, see Münzer, Gent. Val. 36, no. 6. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Magister Equitum? 390 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Liv. 5.48.5. Degrassi (101) considers Potitus the more probable candidate. On Poplicola, see Münzer, Gent. Val. 36, no. 6, on Potitus, 35, no. 4. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 389 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Valerius' praenomen A. in Livy is corrected by reference to the number iterum (see 394) and Livy 5.26.2 and 6.5.7. Verginius may have been Mil. Tr. c. p. in 402. On possible identifications for Cornelius, see 394, note 1. The identification of Manlius is supported by the number tertium after his name in 383 (Liv. 6.21.1) and the cognomen in Chr. 354 on 385. On the name of Aemilius, see Fast. Cap. for 380; on that of Postumius, see 381, Mil. Tr. c. p. On Papirius, see 382, note 1. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 6.1.8; Diod. 15.22.1; Chr. 354 (Tricosto et Albino); cf. Cass. Hem. fr. 20 Peter, and Gell. fr. 25 Peter in Macrob. Sat. 1.16.22. See Degrassi 101, 388f. Aemilius held command against the Etruscans and Manlius near the city (Liv. 6.2.8). On Valerius, see Münzer, Gent. Val. 36, no. 6. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 387 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • According to Diod. there were six Military Tribunes. Of these Livy preserves the names of five, and besides these the Mss of Diod. yield, with variations from one to another, the names given in addition above (CIL 1(2), p. 121, Degrassi 391). The names of Sergius (Servilius in Diod.), Aemilius, and Menenius (see Conway and Walters ad loc.) are confirmed by Fast. Cap. on 380 (Degrassi 32f., 102, 392). Degrassi (101) suggests for the sixth Tribune either L. Cornelius - f. - n. or A. Manlius - f. - n. The numeral tertium (Livy 6.21) after the name of A. Manlius, Mil. Tr. c. p. 383, favors accepting Cornelius here, since Manlius held office in 389 and 385. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 6.5.7; Diod. 15.24.1; Chr. 354 (Cursore et Lanato); Degrassi 101, 390f. Four new tribes were created out of former territory of Veii (Liv. 6.5.8). On Valerius, see Münzer, Gent. Val. 36 no. 6. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 383 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • According to Diod. there were only four Military Tribunes, but Livy has Aemilius and Trebonius also, while in Ms F of Diod. an apocryphal Fabius is added. In Diod. Manlius has the praenomen Lucius; see RE no. 9 on his filiation and cognomen. On Sulpicius's name, see 388. On that of Lucretius, see 392; and on that of Aemilius, see 380. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 6.21.1; Diod. 15.38.1; Chr. 354 (Publicola III et Flavo III); Degrassi 101, 390f. They carried on war with the Volscians and a number of Latin towns. On Valerius, see Münzer, Gent. Val. 36, no. 6. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Militum Consulari Potestate 380 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • The names are preserved in Fast. Cap. as follows: L. Valerius L. f. [- - - -]; P. (Valerius) L. f. L. [n. Poti]tus Poplicol. III; Connelius, Menenius, and Sulpicius, entire as above; [- - - -]n. Mamercin. VI; Cn. [Sergius - f. - n.] Fiden. Coxo III; Ti. Papiri[us - f. - n.] Crassus; L. (Papirius) [- f. - n.] Mugillanus II. Livy lists six, L. and P. Valerius, C. (sic) Sergius, Licinius (sic) Menenius, P. (sic) Papirius, and Sergius (sic) Cornelius Maluginensis. Diod. indicates eight, and in his confused Mss tradition may be identified two Valerii (of P. the praenomen only), Menenius (with praenomen L.), Sulpicius, Aemilius, Papirius (only one, with praenomen T.), and the apocryphal names {Gr} (add. F), C. or Cn. Terentius, and {Gr} (add. F); Degrassi 393. The nine named in Fast. Cap. have no parallel, and it appears that no college of more than eight was known to Claudius (ILS 212; cf. Liv. 5.2.10; 6.37.6; Dion. Hal. 11.56.3). Clearly Fast. Cap. has the most seriously interpolated tradition. (Broughton MRR I)
