Career

  • Tribunus Plebis 376 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • According to Niccolini (FTP 57) and Leuze (Röm. Jahrzählung 361, 364f.) the Military Tribunes of this time entered office on Kal. Quinct., (see Liv. 5.32.1 on 391) or at least in the early autumn (so Leuze). These Tribunes of the Plebs therefore probably entered office under the Military Tribunes of 377 in December 377; then, when reelected (Liv. 6.35.10) in December 376 they began to veto the election of the curule magistrates who would have entered office in the course of 375. This college of 376 is omitted in Livy but preserved at least in part in Diod. I list the Tribunes of the Plebs under 376, the year of their chief activity. See Niccolini, FTP 56, who lists them under 377. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Proposed in this year the famous Licinio-Sextian rogations (Liv. 6.35.4-10; Dion. Hal. 14.12 (22); Plut. Cam. 39; Dio fr. 29 and Zon.{109} 7.24), which provided 1. that interest already paid on debts be deducted from the principal and the latter paid in three equal instalments (Liv. 6.35.4, and 39); 2. that right of possession of public land be limited to 500 iugera (Liv. 6.35.4; 10.13.15; 34.4.9, on Cato; Cic. Leg. Agr. 2.21; Varro RR 1.2.9; Dion. Hal. 14.12; Val. Max. 8.6.3; Vell. 2.6.3; Colum. RR 1.3.15; Plin. NH 18.17; Plut. Cam. 39; TG 8; Gell. 6.3.37, from Cato; 20.1.23; App. BC 1.8-9; Auct. Vir. Ill. 20); 3. that at least one Consul should be a plebeian (Liv. 6.35.5, and 40.18, cf. 37-42; Val. Max. 8.6.3; Plut. Cam. 39 and 42; Flor. 1.17.26.4; Auct. Vir. Ill. 20; Schol. Ambros., p. 275 Stangl; Ampelius 25.4 (Sulpicius Stolo); Dig. 1.2.2.26; Rotondi 219ff.). See 367, Tribunes of the Plebs. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Plebis 375 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • After their reelection (see 376, note 2), they prevented the election of curule magistrates (Liv. 6.35.10; Diod. 15.75.1; Plut. Cam. 39.1; Zon. 7.24). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Plebis 374 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Reelected each year (Liv. 6.35.10; Dion. Hal. 14.12, the ten year Tribunate of Licinius; cf. Plut. Cam. 39.1; Zon. 7.24). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Plebis 373 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Reelected each year (Liv. 6.35.10; Dion. Hal. 14.12, the ten year Tribunate of Licinius; cf. Plut. Cam. 39.1; Zon. 7.24). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Plebis 372 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Reelected each year (Liv. 6.35.10; Dion. Hal. 14.12, the ten year Tribunate of Licinius; cf. Plut. Cam. 39.1; Zon. 7.24). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Plebis 371 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Reelected each year (Liv. 6.35.10; Dion. Hal. 14.12, the ten year Tribunate of Licinius; cf. Plut. Cam. 39.1; Zon. 7.24). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Plebis 370 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Liv. 6.35.10, and 36.7. See 375. Appeals from Tusculum for aid against Velitrae led them to permit the election of the magistrates listed above (Liv. 6.36.1-3).{111} (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Plebis 369 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Reelected for the eighth time, they continued agitation for their bills with increased support (Liv. 6.36-37). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Plebis 368 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • They continued to agitate, even against the Dictators (Liv. 6.38-42; cf. Plut. Cam. 39.1-4; Dio fr. 29; see note 2). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Tribunus Plebis 367 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Refecti decumum (Liv. 6.42.2). In this year they carried two bills, one, before the new Military Tribunes entered office, that the Decemviri s. f. should consist equally of patricians and plebeians (Liv. 6.42.2), and second, late in the year, the Licinio-Sextian rogations (see under 376, Tribunes of the Plebs; Liv. 6.42.9-14; 7.18.5, and 21.1; Dion. Hal. 14.12; Plut. Cam. 42; cf. Fab. Pict. fr. 6, Peter (1.110), in Gell. 5.4.3; Gell. 17.21.27; Ampel. 25.4; Auct. Vir. Ill. 20; Zon. 7.24). Licinius, it is said, was later condemned for holding more public land than was allowed by his own law (Liv. 7.16.9; Dion. Hal. 14.12; Colum. RR 1.3.11; Val. Max. 8.6.3; Plin. NH 18.17; Plut. Cam. 39.5; App. BC 1.18; Auct. Vir. Ill. 20). (Broughton MRR I)
  • Consul 366 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • In Livy, Diod. and Cassiod. Aemilius' cognomen is Mamercus; in Fast. Cap. the reading is [- -M]amercinus; hence too in Chr. 354. Fast. Hyd. and Chr. Pasc. place under this year the names Genucius and Curtius, the college of 445, but under 365 have Mamertinus and Lateranus. In Fast. Cap. Sextius' name is given as L. Sextius Sex. f. N. n. Sex. tin. Lateran. (Degrassi 32f.). Sexti n. instead of the first cognomen may be the correct form (CIL 1(2), p.126). Cassiod. has Sestius. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 7.1.2, cf. 6.42.9; Diod. 15.82.1; Fast. Cap.; Chr. 354 (Mamercino et Laterano); Plut. Cam. 42.5; Cassiod.; cf. Fast. Hyd. and Chr. Pasc. on 365; Degrassi 32f., 104, 398f. (Broughton MRR I)
