Career

  • Consul 334 (Broughton MRR I) Expand

The Consuls proposed a colony to Cales, and civitas sine suffragio was given to some Campanians and Samnites (Liv. 8.16.13-14; Vell. 1.14.3; FGrH 2 B. 1155, no. 255; Rotondi 228). On Postumius, see Lübker no. 12, on Veturius, no. 6. (Broughton MRR I)
  • Consul 321 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Cic. Off. 3.109; Sen. 41; Liv. 9.1.1; Gell. 17.21.36; Flor. 1.11.10; App. Samn. 4.6; Chr. 354 (Calvino II et Albino II); Fast. Hyd. (Galbino et Balbino), so also Chr. Pasc.; Oros. 3.15.3; Cassiod.; Zon. 7.26;{151} Degrassi 108, 416f. Trapped by the Samnites in the Caudine forks, they made a treaty (Claud. Quad. fr. 18, Peter), or at least a sponsio, of peace (Liv. 9.1-7; Cic. Off. 3.109; Sen. 41; Dion. Hal. 16.1.1-7; Val. Max. 5.1, ext. 5; 7.2, ext. 17; Gell. 17.21.36; Flor. 1.11.10; App. Samn. 2-7; Dio fr. 36.10, and Zon. 7.26; Oros. 3.15.1-6). Both Consuls abdicated, and their successors immediately entered upon office (Liv. 9.7.12 and 15), apparently initiating a series of consulships which began in the late autumn or early winter (Niccolini, FTP 70f.). On Postumius, see Lübker no. 12, on Veturius, no. 6. (Broughton MRR I)
