A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology (ed. William Smith), Alcibi'ades (search)
Alcibi'ades （*)Alkibia/dhs), a Spartan exile, was restored to his country about B. C. 184, by the Achaeans, but was ungrateful enough to go as ambassador from Sparta to Rome, in order to accuse Philopoemen and the Achaeans. (Plb. 23.4, 11, 12, 24.4; Liv. 39.35

Areus （*)Areu/s), a Spartan exile, who was restored to his country with Alcibiades, another exile [see p. 100a.], about B. C. 184, by the Achaeans, but afterwards went as ambassador to Rome to accuse the Achaeans. (Plb. 23.11, 12, 24.4; Liv. 39.35; Paus. 7.9.2

m were the patricians P. and L. Scipio, and the plebeian L. Fulvius Nobilior. He was loud in his promises or threats of reform, and declared that, if invested with power, he would not belie the professions of his past life. The dread of his success alarmed all his personal enemies, all who were notorious for their luxury, and all who derived profit from the mismanagement of the public finances. Notwithstanding the combined opposition of the six other candidates, he obtained the censorship, B. C. 184, bringing in by his own influence L. Valerius Flaccus as his colleague. This was a great epoch in Cato's life. He applied himself strenuously to the duties of his office, regardless of the enemies he was making. He repaired the watercourses, paved the reservoirs, cleansed the drains, destroyed the communications by which private individuals illegally drew off the public water to supply their dwellings and irrigate their gardens, raised the rents paid by the publicani for the farm of the

Crispi'nus, Qui'nctius Crispinus occurs as an agnomen in the family of the Penni Capitolini of the Quinctia gens. [CAPITOLINUS, p. 606a.] The full name of the L. Quinctius Crispinus, who was praetor in B. C. 186, and who triumphed in B. C. 184, on account of his victories in Spain, was probably L. Quinctius Pennus Capitolinus Crispinus. (Liv. 39.6, 8, 30, 42.) [L.S]

to nominate a commissioner to inquire into the matter. The respect which Culleo had paid to P. Scipio was well known, and the friends of the Scipios probably supported his appointment for that reason; though it is stated, on the other hand, that his nomination to the office was brought about by the enemies of Scipio, because he was in reality an enemy to the family, and had been guilty of hypocrisy in the honours he had paid to his deliverer from captivity. But however this may be, L. Scipio and others were condemned by him; from which we may conclude, either that he was in reality in league with the party opposed to the Scipios, or that their guilt was so clear that he dared not acquit even his friends. In B. C. 184, Culleo was an unsuccessful candidate for the consulship, and in 181 was one of the three ambassadors sent to Masinissa and Carthage to ask for assistance in the war against Perseus. (Liv. 30.43, 45, 33.47, 38.42, 55, 39.32, 42.35; V. Max. 5.2.5; Plut. Apophth. p. 196.)

Cydas 1. The commander of 500 of the Cretan Gortynii, joined Quinctius Flamininus in Thessaly in B. C. 197. (Liv. 33.3.) This Cydas may be the same as the Cydas, the son of Antitalces, who was cosmus or supreme magistrate at Gortyna, when a Roman embassy visited the island about B. C. 184, and composed the differences which existed between the inhabitants of Gortyna and Cnossus. (Plb. 33.15.)

Flaccus, Fu'lvius 10. M. Fulvius Flaccus, one of the triumvirs who were appointed to conduct the colonies to Pollentia and Pisaurum, in B. C. 184. (Liv. 39.44.)

n the year B. C. 194, as proconsul, and in the neighbourhood of Milan lie fought with great success against the Gauls, Insubrians, and Boians, who had crossed the Po under their chief, Dorulacus: 10,000 enemies are said to have been killed. In B. C. 191, although a consular, he served as legate under the consul, M'. Acilius Glabrio, in the war against the Aetolians and Macedonians. With 2000 picked foot soldiers, he was ordered to occupy Rhoduntia and Tichius. The Macedonians, by a mistake, approached his camp too closely, and, on discovering the enemy, they took to flight in the greatest disorder. Flaccus pursued them, and made great havoc among them. In B. C. 184 he was the colleague of M. Porcius Cato in the censorship, and in the same year he was made princeps senatus. He died as pontifex in B. C. 180, and was succeeded by Q. Fabius Labeo. (Liv. 31.4, 49, 50, 32.1, 33.42, 43, 34.21, 46, 36.17, 19, 39.40, &c., 52, 40.42; Plb. 20.9, &c.; Plut. Cat. Ma. 12; Nep. Cat. 2 ; Oros. 4.20.)
A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology (ed. William Smith), Flamini'nus (search)
the year he went to Rome to conduct the elections for the next year, and when this was done, he returned to the country of the boians, who submitted to him without taking up arms. Upon his return to Rome, he levied a large army, at the command of the senate, that the new consuls, immediately after entering upon their office, might have forces ready to set out against Anticohus. In B. C. 191 he was appointed legate to the consul M'. Acilius Glabrio, who had to conduct the war in Greece. In B. C. 184, M. Porcius Cato, who was then censor, ejected L. Quintius Flamininus from the senate, and then delivered a most severe speech against him for crimes which he had committed seven years before in his consulship. Among the various charges he brought against Lucius, there is one which exhibits him in a truly diabolical light. It seems that he had become acquainted in Greece with the vice of paederastia, and when in his consulship he went to the north of Italy, he took with him his favourite y
