User:Llywrch/List of Consuls notes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The need to base these lists on reliable sources; right now we have no source for the list in general.

  • Either Degrassi, Fasti Capitolini (1954) or Broughton, The magistrates of the Roman republic (1952) for the Republican part.
    • Update this material with later discoveries. (Syme, Augustan Aristocracy has a list current for 1986 for 80 BC - AD 14)
    • How to indicate variant readings? Which ones to include? (Obviously, do not include each time a source reverses the order of the consuls. Omit these unless all the primary sources disagree with Broughton & he offers no reasoning for ignoring them.)
  • For Imperial part, this will be more complex. No single source. There is Degrassi's I fasti consulari dell'Impero Romano (1952), but it is in Italian.
    • Syme's article for AD 14-20.
    • V. Ehrenberg, A. H. M. Jones, Documents Illustrating the Reigns of Augustus and Tiberius, 2nd Edition (1963) to cover the gap in those reigns.
    • P. A. Townend, "The Fasti for the Reign of Gaius", Antichthon, 13 (1979)
    • W. Eck, Senatoren von Vespasian bis Hadrian (1970) -- Lacks a list of consuls; might have to rely on Smallwood, Documents Illustrating the Principates of Nerva, Trajan and Hadrian (Cambridge, 1966), & update that. :-/
    • G. Alföldy, Konsulat u. Senatorenstand unter der Antoninen (1977) Covers AD 138-180
    • P. M. Leunissen, Konsulen u. Konsularien in der Zeit con Commodus bis Severus Alexander, 180-235 (1989)
    • How to cover gap 236-283? PLRE covers 260+ -- Only consuls suffectus from 206 known, so any general ancient chronology that covers the 3rd century ought to suffice.
    • Roger Bagnall, et alia, Consuls of the later Roman Empire (1989) -- covers 284 to the bitter end.
    • Update, using survey articles of Roman inscriptions in JRS, material from ZPE & L'Année épigraphique. (I hope using just these 3 sources is good enough)

Other editions of primary sources:

  • Fasti Ostienses, ed. Ladislav Vidman Rozpravy CSAV 67, 1957
  • John Schied with P. Tassimi & J. Rupke, Recherches archeologiques a La Magliana. Commentarii fratrum arvalium qui supersunt. Les copies epigraphiques des protocols annuels de la confrerie arva (21 av. - 304 ap. J.-C.) Rome antica 4 1998

Possible related articles:

  • Varronian chronology
  • How the Republican historians compiled the list
    • Or The Consular fasti, with a section about the origins of the list.
  • How contemporary historians recovered the Imperial section of the list, viz. 43 BC -AD 206:
    • The names of the consulares ordinarii are mostly certain, with a few exceptions;
    • Sources: literary (Tacitus, Suetonius, etc.), inscriptions (Fasti Ostienses, Acta Fratrum Arvalium, others), non-literary documents (archives of Pompei & Herculaneum), diplomata militari (gap under Marcus Aurelius, ends at 206), indirect (e.g., proconsulars of Africa & Asia).
    • Inference & reasoning (example of Gallivan)
  • Profiles of the Roman consuls -- Even knowing only the names of the consuls, we can still trace developments in the evolution of the Roman Republic & Empire. (Amongst other studies, P.A. Brunt, J.R.S., 72 (1982), 1-17.)
  • Ronald Syme: "The register of the Roman consuls can serve sundry purposes. At the simplest and lowest, it will fix a date or establish a man's identity. In the absence of written history, however, it becomes history itself, as can be demonstrated for divergent epochs, Republican and Imperial; and, even where historians exist, they will often have to be supplemented by exploiting this evidence, or subverted." (I Fasti Consolari dell' Impero Romano dal 30 Av anti Christo al 613 Dopo Christo by Attilio Degrassi, reviewed by Ronald Syme, Journal of Roman Studies, 43 (1953), p. 148)
  • And again: "No history surviving from antiquity has traced the progressive enlargement of the Roman governing class, age by age and region by region-the best statement available is brief and impressionistic, namely Tacitus on the 'principes' of Gallia Comata (Ann. XI, 24), adapting and improving the speech of Claudius Caesar (ILS 212). ... When a senator's origin is not obvious or specified, the study of nomenclature and the pursuit of local dynastic families can yield striking results. From bare names in periods of history apparently void or vague the whole process of social change emerges." (p. 149)
  • List of phantom Roman consuls: these are people thought to be consuls but were later found either did not hold that office, or did not exist
  • The consuls of AD 69 -- the Year of Four Emperors
  • The consuls of AD 190 -- the year of 25 consuls -- Cassius Dio, 73.12.4: "Besides all this, Cleander appointed twenty-five consuls for one year, a thing that never happened before or since; one of these consuls was Severus, who later became emperor."

Introduction (s)

[edit]

What should the introduction cover?

  • Republic:
    • How this list was compiled
    • Problems with the list: not officially maintained, variant readings for the early Republic (generally before 300 BC)
    • Varronian chronology was adopted due to it being the most common; experts are agreed that in its present form the list before 300 BC is not reliable. Need an article to discuss this issue.
    • What was included (Consular Tribunes, the anarchia, the four Dictator Years), & what was excluded (Dictators & Masters of Horse, Censors, other magistrates & ponifices maximi). And why these decisions were made: to simplify presentation, to provide a name to identify the person & his associated year. To find other magistrates, refer to the related lists.
    • Rationale for footnotes. My preference: variant readings for the early Republic where it effects the identity of the consul (variant forms of the consul's name is delegated to the article); citations for dates of Imperial suffect consuls; explain succession of suffect consuls when needed; notes explaining that information on a given consul is limited to his name; when both post-395 consuls are from one part of the Empire (i.e., both from Rome or Constantinople).
  • Early Empire:
    • Names of the consules ordinarii are well known & reliable. Same sources as Late Empire
    • The issue of suffect consuls -- lack of information, compiled in modern times from many sources: inscriptions like Fasti Ostiensis; literary sources; military diplomas; inference from other lists (e.g. list of proconsuls of Asia)
    • Evidence for dating these ends c. AD 206 except for one isolated year
  • Late Empire:
    • Generally reliable, issue with identification
    • Sources for this part of the list: Chronography of 354, Paschale Chronicle, contemporary records, literary sources
    • Alternative series of consuls: Gallic Empire, Tetrarchy, usurpers
    • Eastern & Western consuls; delays in one court learning of the selection of the other; sometimes one court (to oversimplify) selected both members of the college (What to omit, how to indicate one court selecting both?)
    • The title Flavius

Miscellaneous

[edit]
  • First dictator (per Livy & Dionysius)
  • Reverse the order of cos. 502 BC

(Note: Many years lack their complete complement of suffect consuls. Those years that are complete have the number of the year in bold. For ease of reading, nundinia where both consuls are missing are omitted; where one is known, the other is indicated as ignotus. Consuls that may fit in these lacunae may be found at List of undated Roman consuls.)

  1. ^ Unless otherwise noted, consuls from AD 1 through AD 12 are taken from Ronald Syme, The Augustan Aristocracy, (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1986), pp. 455–458
  2. ^ The consuls of this year are taken from Diana Gorostidi Pi, "Sui consoli dell’anno 13 d.C.: Nuovi dati dai fasti consulares Tusculani", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 189 (2014), pg 265–275
  3. ^ Unless otherwise indicated, the names and dates for the years AD 14–36 are taken from Alison E. Cooley, The Cambridge Manual of Latin Epigraphy (Cambridge: University Press, 2012), pp.458-460
  4. ^ Cooley indicates no suffect consuls for this year
  5. ^ The dates of the consuls in this year is taken from John Bodel, "Chronology and Succession 2: Notes on Some Consular Lists on Stone", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 105 (1995), p. 296
  6. ^ First proposed by Hans-Georg Pflaum, and accepted by Ladislaus Vidman (Fasti Ostienses, 2nd edition, p. 68); Cooley offers as a possible alternative A. Didius Gallus although she also puts him in the last nundinium of 39.
  7. ^ Unless otherwise indicated, the names and dates for the years AD 37–40 are taken from Paul Gallivan, "The Fasti for the Reign of Gaius", Antichthon, 13 (1979), p. 66–69
  8. ^ Unless otherwise indicated, the names and dates for the years AD 41-54 are taken from Gallivan, "The Fasti for the Reign of Claudius", Classical Quarterly, 28 (1978), pp. 407–426
  9. ^ M. Christol and S. Demougin have shown that the colleague of P. Suillius Rufus is not the governor of Britain, but another member of the gens Ostoria ("Notes de prosopographie équestre", in Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 57 (1984), pp. 171-8).
  10. ^ Gallivan's source (Gaius Institutes, 3.63) does not indicate which months Cornelius held office.
  11. ^ In a re-examination of the primary source, Camodeca has shown that the consul "L. S[...]" is a phantom, and it has been removed from this list. ("I consoli del 43 e gli Antistii Veteres d'età claudia dalla riedizione delle Tabulae Herculanenses", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 140 (2002), pp. 227–236
  12. ^ Camodeca concludes that the former reading, L. Oppius, is erroneous, and that the initial is certainly 'S', probably followed by 'p', but the name is definitely not Sex. This late occurrence of the praenomen indicates that the consul was probably descended from the praetor Spurius Oppius of 44 BC, and recalls the decemvir Spurius Oppius Cornicen. "I consoli del 43", pp. 230, 232, 233.
  13. ^ Suffect consuls for July–December Gallivan placed in 44 Camodeca moved to 47 ("Novità sui fasti consolari delle tavolette cerate della Campania", Publications de l'École française de Rome, 143 (1991), p. 52)
  14. ^ Giuseppe Camodeca, "I consoli del 43 e gli Antistii Veteres d'età claudia dalla riedizione delle Tabulae Herculanenses", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik 140 (2002), pp. 234–236.
  15. ^ See Camodeca, "Novità sui fasti consolari", p. 52
  16. ^ Giuseppe Camodeca argues that Gallivan mistakenly followed an error by the writer of Tabula Pompeiana 41, and combined the two Vipstani into one person; other wax tablets dated to that year show the two suffect consuls as separate people. ("Novità sui fasti consolari", p. 53)
  17. ^ Gallivan shows Aefulanus held his office in this year, but not which month.
  18. ^ Names and dates for 55 and 56 taken from Giuseppe Camodeca, "I consoli des 55–56 e un nuovo collega di seneca nel consolato: P. Cornelius Dolabella (TP.75 [=1401 +135)*", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 63 (1986), pp. 201–215.
  19. ^ Camodeca allocates January–April to Vetus, while Werner Eck, Historia, 24 (1975), pp. 338 ff. extends his tenure to June.
  20. ^ Unless otherwise indicated, the names and dates for the years 57-68 are taken from Gallivan, "Some Comments on the Fasti for the Reign of Nero", Classical Quarterly, 24 (1974), pp. 290–311
  21. ^ Names and dates for 62 taken from Eck, "Miscellanea prosopographica", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 42 (1981), pp. 227 ff.
  22. ^ George Houston points out that this consul had no attested cognomen, and "Celsus" was added based on a preliminary reading of a wax table from Pompeii, CIL IV.3340.151. "P. Marius P.f., Cos. Ord. A.D. 62", ZPE 16 (1975), pp. 33–35
  23. ^ Gallivan, "Reign of Nero" followed Degrassi in assuming that the ordinary consul for this year was named "A. Licinius Nerva Silianus p. Pasidienus Firmus", a case of polyonymy. A military diploma published later (AE 1978, 658) shows they are two different people.
  24. ^ a b Gallivan, "Reign of Nero", placed Appius Annius Gallus and Severus in 66 and Marcus Annius Afrinus and Africanus in 67; however Camodeca published one of the Tabulae Herculei that shows Appius Annius Gallus and Severus were suffect consuls 4 November of an unknown year -- thus proving their office was in 67. (AE 1993, 460 = Bolletino del Centro internazionale per lo studio dei papyri ercolanesi, 23 (1993), 109-119)
  25. ^ Names and dates for this year are taken from Camodeca, "I consoli degli anni di Nerone", p. 281
  26. ^ Names and dates for this year are taken from G. B. Townend, "The Consuls of A. D. 69/70", American Journal of Philology, 83 (1962), pp. 113–129
  27. ^ Unless otherwise indicated, the names and dates for the years 70–96 are taken from Paul Gallivan, "The Fasti for A. D. 70–96", Classical Quarterly, 31 (1981), pp. 186–220
  28. ^ a b Gallivan dated M. Ulpius Traianus the Elder to 70 based on his arrangement of the fragments of tablet E of the Fasti Ostienses (p. 187); however, subsequent recovery of fragments allowed Ladislav Vidman to date Ulpius Traianus' tenure to 72 (Vidman, Fasti Ostienses, pp. 73-75). AE 1978, 60 proves that C. Licinius Mucianus was suffect consul for that nundinium; redating Ulpius Traianus is the only change required.
  29. ^ The suffect consuls for September–October are attested in 80 by the Fasti Septempeda, a primary source.
  30. ^ This pair of suffects added from Camodeca, "Novità sui fasti consolari", pp. 57–62
  31. ^ Gallivan ("Fasti for A. D. 70–96", pp. 206, 219) dated this pair of suffects to 30 December "71-72"; because Camodeca added the consuls for November–December 71, they are placed here.
  32. ^ All that survives of this suffect's name on the Fasti Feriarum Latinarum (CIL VI, 2242)
  33. ^ AE 1968, 7 restores this as "Sex. Iulius Fr]on[tinus", stating he is attested as suffect consul in June.
  34. ^ Grainger, John D. (2004). Nerva and the Roman Succession Crisis of AD 96–99. London: Routledge. p. 14. ISBN 0203218078.
  35. ^ See Syme, "P. Calvisius Ruso. One Person or Two?" Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 56 (1984), pp. 173-192
  36. ^ Gallivan ("Fasti for A. D. 70–96", pp. 209, 219) dated this pair of suffects to "79-80"; this is the only open office in those two years, so he is placed here.
  37. ^ a b c Added from the Fasti Septempeda (AE 1998, 419)
  38. ^ All that survives of this suffect's name on the Fasti Ostienses (frag. Fa)
  39. ^ So Gallivan. Werner Eck suggests instead M. Mettius Modestus. "Epigraphische Untersuchungen zu Konsuln und Senatoren des 1.-3. Jh. n. Chr.", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 37 (1980), pp. 51-60
  40. ^ CIL IX, 5420 dates Patruinus to this nundinium, and Werner Eck ("Epigraphische Untersuchungen zu Konsuln und Senatoren des 1.-3. Jh. n. Chr.", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 37 (1980), pp. 51-60) restores the deleted name as Saturninus'.
  41. ^ For the suffect consuls Gallivan placed in July/August of this year see List of undated Roman consuls and note.
  42. ^ This person is a puzzle. G.B. Townend stated he was the son of the suffect consul of 70 and 74, but that means the older Petillius either held the fasces late in life, or had his son very young. Gallivan suggests that this may actually be the third consulship of Petilius. (Gallivan, "The Fasti for A. D. 70–96", p. 212)
  43. ^ Syme first proposed the identification of this consul with M. Raecius Gallus ("Pliny the Procurator", Harvard Studies in Classical Philology, 73 (1969), pp. 201–236 [p. 229]). However, he later concluded that Publius Glitius Gallus "is on every count a better candidate" than Raecius ("P. Calvisius Ruso. One Person or Two?", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 56 (1984), pp. 173-192 [p. 175]).
  44. ^ Syme raised the possibility that L. Valerius Catullus Messallinus was the second consul ordinarius for this year Journal of Roman Studies, 43 (1953), p. 155), a suggestion shared by H. Nesselhauf (Gnomon 26 (1954), p. 270); however, Vidman has found an inscription which is dated a.d. X k. Februarias Imp. Domitiano XI, T. Aurelio Fulvo it(terum) co(n)sulibus, showing that Fulvus was the consul posterior for this year. (Fasti Ostienses, pp. 78f)
  45. ^ This pair of suffects taken from Eck and Pangerl, "Neue Diplome mit den Namen von Konsuln und Statthaltern", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 187 (2013), pp. 274f
  46. ^ a b Evidence is lacking to determine whether Campanus served until April, or an unknown person held the fasces in March and April.
  47. ^ So AE 2012, 1959; Gallivan "Bellicus", following CIL VI, 2065
  48. ^ Or M. Tuccius Cerialis, a consular mentioned by Pliny (Epistulae, II.11.9)
  49. ^ Names and dates for this year are taken from Werner Eck, "Diplome, Konsuln und Statthalter: Fortschritte und Probleme der kaiserzeitlichen Prosopographie", Chiron, 34 (2004), pp. 35-44.
  50. ^ AE 2008, 1753
  51. ^ Unless otherwise noted, the consuls for this year are taken from Fausto Zevi "I consoli del 97 d. Cr. in due framenti gia' editi dei Fasti Ostienses", Listy filologické / Folia philologica, 96 (1973), pp. 125–137
  52. ^ All that survives of the consul's name on the Fasti ostienses is "..]us", which Zevi had plausibly restored as Lucius Licinius Sura. However, two more recently recovered fragments of military diplomas show that the name of this consul is L. Pomponius Maternus, who is otherwise unknown. (Eck and Pangerl, "Zwei Konstitutionen für die Truppen Niedermösiens vom 9. September 97", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 151 (2005), pp. 185-192
  53. ^ So Zevi; Cooley offers no colleague for Tacitus. Peter Weiss has argued, based on more recently recovered evidence, that Scapula could have been suffect consul in September–October 99, or even later. (Weiss, "Weitere Diplomfragmente von Moesia Inferior", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 124 (1999), pp. 287-289
  54. ^ Unless otherwise indicated, the names and dates for the years 98 - 100 are taken from Cooley, Cambridge Manual of Latin Epigraphy, pp. 466f
  55. ^ This pair of suffects added from Vidman (Fasti Ostienses, p. 94), following Syme's suggestion (review of Degrassi, I Fasti Consolari dell' Impero Romano dal 30 Av anti Christo al 613 Dopo Christo in Journal of Roman Studies, 43 (1953), p. 154)
  56. ^ Placed in this year by Mommsen.

Other issues

[edit]
  • If we divide up the List page (right now it weighs in at 206Kb) shd it be in 2 parts -- Republican Rome & Imperial Rome -- or 3 -- Republican, Early Imperial, & Late Imperial?
  • Is it "List of Republican Roman consuls" or "List of Roman Republican consuls"?
  • The templates associated with "S-start" don't support collegiate offices like consuls & consular tribunes well. There are about a dozen different ways the existing templates have been kludged to support collegiate offices. (Compile examples.)
  • How to handle suffect consuls of the Roman Empire? Should Roman dictator template boxes indicate precedent & successive office holders? In the list, should all unknown/ignotus be shown, or only those paired with a known suffect consul?
  • How to indicate consules of competing lineages?
