⁵⁶ ‘Earlier Roman commanders' would include Sulla, between 97/6–93/2. Much of Lucullus’ letter is devoted to the valuable services performed by Diodotus, the priest of Sarapis and Isis, which may have included a subsidy to him from the temple treasures.

⁵⁷ The letter of ?Sulla, which includes the very unusual formula κατὰ τὴν πα[ρ]άκλησιν τὴν Λευκόλλου (‘according to the recommendation of Lucullus’, ll. 5–6), would date from 85 B.C. If Mopsuestia had not yet been sacked then, Justin's dating (40.1.4, 2.3) of the Parthian invasion to 86 can hardly be right (p. 128), and Appian, Syr. 48 and 70 (83 B.C.) must be preferred.

We want to stress that inscriptions are not a reliable index of ‘popularity’ — whatever that means in imperial politics.

⁹⁵ The components of that army are spelled out in detail: (a) the soldiers of the province of Raetia; (b) the Germaniciani (presumably those controlled by Postumus as ?governor of Germania Superior; (c) populares (perhaps the local populations).

⁹⁶ So bearing out the view of J. F. Drinkwater (The Gallic Empire: Separatism and Community in the North-Western Provinces of the Roman Empire A.D. 260–274, Historia Supp. 52 (1987), 26) that ‘although Postumus revolted after the capture of Valerian I, he did not rebel because of this humiliation to Roman arms’; this view is supported also by a reconsideration of CIL VIII.12294 = 23877 = ILTun 665 (a ‘prosalute’ of Valerian, from Bisica, Afr. Procos.), confirming that Valerian is there ascribed nine regnal years — which, if not merely an error, suggests that he was still considered, at least in some places, Augustus after 10 December 260: Dupuis, X., MEFRA 104 (1992), 269CrossRefGoogle Scholar no. 12 = AE 1992, no. 1814. For the Iuthungi, see also below p. 237.

⁹⁷ Lavagne CRAI 1994, 440–1; Drinkwater, op. cit. (n. 96), 89, citing the literary references. There remains considerable dispute on the exact chronology: Lavagne believes that the Iuthungi and Alamans invaded together and that the battle of Milan, in early spring 260, was what caused the Iuthungi to move back north to be caught at Augsburg by Genialis and Postumus in April; Bakker thinks that Gallienus defeated the Iuthungi on 24–5 March in Raetia, and defeated the Alamans at Milan in the latter part of 260.

¹⁰⁰ Both bronzes were found through illegal exploration in the late 1980s; the findspot of frg. B is unconfirmed, and it may come from near El Tejar, prov. Córdoba. Four tiny fragments under four other sites are also known; a seventh, from Martos, is suspected by A. U. Stylow (at pp. 35–7).

¹⁰¹ Diplomatic copies of A, B on pp. 10–30; list of variants, 67–70. A is arranged in four cols with a heading in larger letters presumably added at Irni (cf. p. 126); the letters were painted before being incised. B, in two columns, is much less completely preserved; instead of a heading, the first three lines of the text are written in larger letters.

¹⁰² The remainder, ll. 165–73, concerns the arrangements for publication — unlike the Tab. Siarensis, not in Italy nor in the coloniae, but in the celeberrima urbs of each province, and ad signa in the legionary winter-quarters — a sure sign of the need to placate the soldiery. It ends, 11. 174–6, with a subscriptio by Tiberius authorizing the placing of the SC in the state archives. The document thus synthesizes at least seven or eight different senatus consulta passed on the same day.

¹⁰³ The commentary on Tac., Ann. 3 by A. J. Woodman and R. H. Martin (1996), takes full account of the find.

¹⁰⁵ Ann. 3.14.4; cf. 16.1. But the Senate, of course, did know the arguments for the defence, and the letters between Germanicus and Piso.

¹⁰⁶ The Senate was also the prisoner of its earlier decisions concerning Germanicus, in particular the SC that preceded the Lex Valeria Aurelia.

¹⁰⁷ Here the text makes its sole reference to the story that Piso had murdered Germanicus, putting the charge into the dead man's mouth (27–8); cf. Tac., Ann. 3.14.1.

¹⁰⁸ Cn. Calpurnius Piso iun. is advised to change his praenomen (on similar cases, Solin, H., Tyche 10 (1995), 185–210Google Scholar), but essentially neither son is held responsible, or hindered in his career, and each is to receive half of Piso's sequestered property, with the chief exception of an estate in Hillyrico, which is to become Imperial because of the intolerable behaviour towards the neighbours on the part of Piso's freedman and slaves (ll. 85–90). Munatia Plancina is condemned but forgiven because Livia has intervened for her (ll. 109–20).

¹⁰⁹ On general issues: see Eck, W.

¹¹⁴ viz. M. Pompeius M.f. Teret. Priscus (Eck, op. cit. (n. 99), 92); and C. Arrenus C.f. Gal. Gallus. Another witness, L. Nonius Asprenas, son of cos. suff. A.D. 6, already gives his tribe as Pomptina — the earliest previously-known evidence for the change of tribe of this family was IRT no. 346. ‘Aulus', the quaestor principis mentioned in Tiberius’ subscriptio, is probably the Aulus Plautius cos. suff. 29, who conquered Britain (important remarks on his family and career, 103–6). Copy A of the SC also gives the praenomen of Vibius Serenus, procos. Baet., as N., which means a change to the text at Tac., , Ann. 2.30.1Google Scholar.

¹¹⁵ Tacitus, , Ann. 2.77.1Google Scholar, mentions only Domitius Celer among Piso's advisers. The SC describes them as ‘omnium maleficiorum socii ac ministri’ (ll. 120–1). Although senatorial Visellii and Sempronii are known, they may be taken to have been equestrians.

¹¹⁶ Eck, op. cit. (n. 99), 231, warns, however, against the assumption that this praetor was responsible for carrying out the judgement after all trials for maiestas. It is not clear whether interdictio means simply banishment or, as most recent commentators have supposed, is a periphrasis for execution. Eck inclines to the former.
