The evidence quoted above shows that the ancient sources admit of four different identifications for Plautius and two for Cornelius. Plautius may be C. Plautius P. f. P. n. Proculus, Cos. 358, or perhaps a son, P. (or C.) Plautius C. f. P. n. Proculus, not otherwise known. But the authorities based on Fast. Cap. point either to Decianus, Cos. 329 (Chr. 354) or to C. P. Venno or Venox, possibly a brother of the Consul of 330. No choice is certain; but in view of the general priority to be given to Livy's lists I have listed Proculus above. Likewise, no clear choice is possible between Cornelius Scapula and Cornelius Scipio Barbatus, who would then be an uncle of the Consul of 298 and uncle or father of the Pontifex mentioned in 304, -if he was not in fact the Pontifex himself. See Münzer, RE nos. 315 and 316; and on the Plautii, Lübker, nos. 5, 11, and 18. (Broughton MRR I)
