Career

  • Consul 478 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • On the name Ahala, see Degrassi 90; CIL 1(2). 1, pp. 30 and 100, note 2. Münzer (RE nos. 85 and 87) has apparently interchanged the praenomina C. and Sp. Sergius, named in Dion. Hal. as the ordinary Consul with Aemilius, is probably a corruption of Servilius. Diodorus is in error in naming C. Cornelius Lentulus since the praenomen is foreign to the patrician Lentuli and the cognomen does not appear until much later. (Broughton MRR I)
    • Liv. 2.49.9; Diod. 11.52.1 (see note 1); Fast. Cap. ([- - - Stru]ctus Ahala); Dion. Hal. 9.16.1 (see notes 1 and 2); Chr. 354 (Mamerco II et Strueto); Fast. Hyd. (Aemilio II et Aesculino); Chr. Pasc. ({Gr}); Cassiod.; Degrassi 24f., 89f., 356f. Aemilius defeated the Veientanes and made them sue for peace, while Servilius faced the Volscians (Liv. 2.49.9-12; Dion. Hal. 9.16.1-17.4). According to Fast. Cap., Servilius died in office (Degrassi 24f., 89). (Broughton MRR I)
