Publi'cola, Vale'rius 7. P. Valerius Publicola, consul B. C. 352, with C. Marcius Rutilus, and praetor two years afterwards, B. C. 350, in which year he had the command of the army of reserve in the war against the Gauls. In B. C. 344 he was appointed dictator, for the purpose of celebrating games in consequence of the appearance of prodigies. (Liv. 7.21, 23, 28.)
Sci'pio 2. P. Cornelius Scipio, probably son of the preceding, was one of the first curule aediles, who were appointed in B. C. 366, when one place in the consulship was thrown open to the plebeians. He is apparently the same as the L. Scipio who was magister equitum to the dictator Camillus, in B. C. 350. (Liv. 7.1, 24.)

The date cannot be assigned with exactness to a year; but, as Mausolus died in Ol. 106. 4, B. C. 352, and the edifice seems to have been her husband, the artists engaged on the work continued their labours voluntarily, it would follow that they were working at the sculptures both before and after B. C. 350 (Plin. Nat. 36.5. s. 4.9; Vitruv. vii. praef. ยง 12). On these grounds the period of Scopas may be assigned as from B. C. 395 to B. C. 350, and perhaps a little eB. C. 350, and perhaps a little earlier and later. He was probably somewhat older than PRAXITELES, with whom he stands at the head of that second period of perfected art which is called the later Attic school (in contradistinction to the earlier Attic school of Pheidias), and which arose at Athens after the Peloponnesian War.
