^{page 142 note 1} The ancient evidence about Vinicius comes from Tac. Ann. VI, 15; Suet. Aug. 71; Dio 53, 26, 4; Vell. Pat. II, 96, 2–3 (cf. Florus II, 24), and 104, 2.

^{page 142 note 3} Each mentions the ancestry of his grandson. Vell. Pat. II, 96 2, ‘avo tuo, consulari’; Tac. Ann. VI, 15, ‘Vinicio oppidanum genus: Calibus ortus, patre atque avo consularibus, cetera equestri familia erat.’

^{page 143 note 1} The argument from the second consulate is so strong that it is hardly necessary to mention another consideration. The Vinicius of the inscription was sodalis Augustalis, that is to say, he must have survived Augustus. Whether the grandfather lived so long, however, is uncertain.

^{page 145 note 1} Noricum was probably annexed in 16 B.C., Dio 54, 20, 2. Velleius states that Carnuntum belonged to the kingdom of Noricum (II, 109, 3).

II, 96, 2–3, ‘Subinde bellum Pannonicum quod incohatum ab Agrippa Marcoque Vinicio, avo tuo, consulari, magnum atroxque et perquam vicinum imminebat Italiae per Neronem gestum est’; Dio 54, 31, 2–4, etc.; Suet. Tib. 9, ‘Pannonico (sc. bello) Breucos et Dalmatas subegit’; and, especially, Mon. Anc. 30, ‘Pannoniorum gentes qua[s a]nte me principem populi Romani exercitus nunquam ad[i]t, devictas per Ti.

^{page 147 note 3} The rehabilitation of Tiberius cannot be extended to cover his panegyrist. Velleius is mendacious as well as misleading. Tiberius marched to the Elbe in 5 A.D. This, sas Velleius, was ‘Numquam antea spe conceptum, nedum opere tentatum’ (II, 106, 2). But Drusus had reached the Elbe, Ahenobarbus had crossed it.
