unusual facts about Praetor's Edict


Perpetual Edict

The Praetor's Edict in Roman Law, after the praetors began reissuing exactly the same edict as their predecessors, about 130 AD.


CivCity: Rome

The player is granted various ranks, progressing through such titles as: Quaestor, Aedile, Censor, Tribune, Praetor and Consul.

Gaius Servilius Glaucia

While attempting to stand for consul for 99 BC, he was engaged in an exchange between himself and another candidate Gaius Memmius who attempted to prevent his candidature on the grounds that he had not waited the mandatory two years between election as praetor and election to the consulship, as stipulated by the "Lex Villia Annalis".

Hybla Gereatis

During the Second Punic War, Livy mentions Hybla as one of the towns that were induced to revolt to the Carthaginians in 211 BCE, but were quickly recovered by the Roman praetor M. Cornelius.

Licinius Macer

He became praetor in 68, but in 66 Cicero succeeded in convicting him of bribery and extortion, upon which Macer committed suicide.

Lucius Caecilius Metellus Calvus

First Calvus used to be a Praetor, later a Consul and Governor of Hispania in 142 BC, where he fought, without success, against Viriathus, then he became a Proconsul of Cisalpine Gaul in 141 BC, and in 140 BC—139 BC he was a Legate.

Lucius Marius Perpetuus

It may be that Marius Perpetuus was a Plebeian Tribune or Aedile or Praetor (any one of these, or perhaps a combination of these posts), or perhaps he was adlected into the praetorship.

Manius Pomponius Matho

In 217 BC, he was apparently chosen magister equitum to the dictator, Lucius Veturius Philo, and was elected praetor for the following year, 216 BC.

Palazzo Re Enzo

In the first floor was held the Carroccio and the war machines, while in the middle floor were the offices of the praetor and the chapel.

Praetor

T. Corey Brennan, in his two-volume study of the praetorship, argues that during the military crisis of the 240s the second praetorship was created to make another holder of imperium available for command and provincial administration inter peregrinos.

Publius Clodius Thrasea Paetus

In 62 the praetor Antistius Sosianus, who had written abusive poems about Nero, was accused on a maiestas charge by Thrasea's old enemy Cossutianus Capito, who had recently been restored to the senate through the influence of his father-in-law Tigellinus.

Publius Varinius

He's a military and political figure of some importance, holding the rank of praetor, like Glaber (Craig Parker); as such, due to the competitive nature of Roman politics, the two are rivals.

Puteal Scribonianum

The Scribonian Puteal was dedicated or restored by a member of the Libo family, perhaps the praetor of 204 BC, or the tribune of the people in 149 BC.

Second Catilinarian Conspiracy

Another leading conspirator, Lucius Cassius Longinus who was praetor in 66 BC with Cicero, joined the conspiracy after he failed to obtain the consulship in 64 BC along with Catiline.

Spartacus: Vengeance

Brett Tucker as Publius Varinius, Glaber's chief political rival and fellow praetor.

Star Trek: Titan

Their first mission, in the debut novel, Taking Wing, is to set up power-sharing talks among the various Romulan factions that, in the wake of Praetor Shinzon's death in Nemesis, threaten to plunge the Romulan Empire into civil war.

The Son of Neptune

He succeeds and at the end of the book, leads the Roman camp into battle against Gaea's forces and is made Praetor by the campers.

Titus Annius Milo

Milo became praetor in 54 BC, and in that year married Cornelia Fausta, daughter of the dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla and ex-wife of Gaius Memmius.
