Laevi'nus 4. P. Valerius Laevinus, son of the preceding, was one of the praetors in B. C. 177, and obtained for his province a part of Cisalpine Gaul. (Liv. 31.50, 41.8.) [W.B.D]
Lao'dice 7. Daughter of Seleucus IV. Philopator, was married to Perseus, king of Macedonia. (Plb. 26.7; Liv. 42.12; Inscr. Del. apud Marm. Arundel. No. 41.) The marriage is spoken of by Polybius in the year B. C. 177, as having then lately taken place.
Ly'cophron 6. A Rhodian, was sent by his countrymen as ambassador to Rome, in B. C. 177, to obtain from the senate, if possible, a more favourable decree than that which had just pronounced the Lycians to have been assigned by Rome to the Rhodians, eleven years before, as allies rather than as subjects.

he conquest of the important town of Comum. Besides this, in conjunction with his colleague, Purpureo, he obtained some advantages over the Boians and Ligurians: and on his return to Rome was, by unanimous consent, honoured with a triumph. (Liv. 33.25, 36, 37; Plb. 18.25.) In the same year he was appointed pontifex, in the room of C. Sempronius Tuditanus. (Liv. 33.42.) In B. C. 193 he again served in Cisalpine Gaul as one of the lieutenants of the consul L. Cornelius Merula, and took part in the great victory he obtained over the Boians. (Id. 35.5, 8.) In B. C. 189 he obtained the censorship in conjunction with T. Flamininus, an honour which was enhanced in this instance by the number of distinguished competitors over whom they obtained the preference. Their census was marked by the first admission of the people of Formiae, Fundi, and Arpinum, to the full rights of Roman citizens. (Liv. 37.58, 38.28, 36.) From this time we hear no more of him till his death, in B. C. 177. (Id. 41.13.)

Marcellus Clau'dius 8. M. Claudius Marcellus, M. F. M. N., son of No. 5, conspicuous for his three consulships. He succeeded his father as pontifex in B. C. 177, though he had not then held any of the higher offices of the state. (Liv. 41.13 ) In 169 he was appointed praetor, and Spain assigned him for his province. (Id. 43.11, 15.) Three years later he obtained his first consulship, B. . 166, which was marked by a victory over the Alpine tribes of the Gauls, for which he was honoured with a triumph. (Liv. 45.44, Epi.t. xlvi.; Fast. Capit.) His second consulship, in B. C. 155, was, in like manner, distinguished by a triumph over the Ligurians (Fast. Capit.); but we know nothing farther of his exploits on either of these occasions. In B. C. 152 he was a third time raised to the consulship, together with L. Valerius Flaccus, and appointed to conduct the war in Spain. Here he obtained some successes over the Celtiberians; and having added to the impression thus produced by the clemency

Porcius Cato for inquiring into the amount of monies paid by Antiochus the Great, king of Syria, as the price of peace in B. C. 188, to the brothers P. and L. Scipiones. Mummius, intimidated by Cato, withdrew his opposition, and the bill was passed. He was praetor in B. C. 177, and obtained Sardinia for his province. In his praetorship Mummius was instructed by the senate to put in force a decree for dismissing to their respective cities all residents at Rome, who were possessed merely of the Jus Latii. (Liv. 37.54, 41.8 )
Numi'sius 2. C. Numisius, praetor B. C. 177, obtained Sicily as his province. (Liv. 41.8.)
