page 12 note 2 He was presumably under thirty, and so, whatever the form of his manumission, would be, under the Lex Aelia Sentia, in libertate tuitione praetoris, and under the Lex Iunia a Junian Latin—unless the cause of his manumission were such as to be approved by a consilium of senators and knights or of recuperatores. Cf. Gai. i. 18–20.

page 12 note 5 Cf. Stein, Arthur, Der römische Rittersland (1927), p. 45Google Scholar: ‘Während also in der früheren Zeit die Verleihung des Goldringes, sofem die Bedingung des Ritterzensus erfüllt war, die Erwerbung der Ritterwürde in sich schloss und, da die notwendige Voraussetzung hierfür freie Geburt ist, bei Freigelassenen damit zugleich auch eine fiktive Ingenuität ausgesprochen wurde, ist seit Hadrian der Goldring nur das Symbol für die künstlich erlangte Ingenuität selbst’.
