STATIO´NES FISCI
STATIO´NES FISCI The Fiscus (
q.
v.) was divided into various departments, called
stationes, according to the different revenues or business
belonging to it (Cod. 4, 31, 1; 8, 43, 2; 10, 5, 1). Thus we hear of a
statio hereditatium (Wilmanns,
Exempla Inscriptionum Latinarum, 1272); a
statio xx. hereditatium (Wilmanns, 1272, 1389); a
statio quadragesima Galliarum (Wilmanns,
1397,1398; see
QUADRAGESIMA); a
statio ferrariarum
(Wilmanns, 1408); a
statio urbana (Wilmanns,
2810); a
statio marmorum (Wilmanns, 1377); a
statio annonae (Orelli,
Inscr. 4107=4420). We meet also with a
statio privatarum (Wilmanns, 1277), and a
statio patrimonii Augusti (Wilmanns, 1353, 2811). Officials
connected with a statio are mentioned in the above inscriptions under the
names of
procurator, praepositus, contrascriptor,
princeps tabularius, optio tabellariorum, pedisequus.
