The lustrum was also the five-year period of the censors' term; it was customary for them to finish their business in a year and a half and thereafter to be inactive. The number of citizens rated was one hundred forty-three thousand seven hundred four.While the MSS. give the number thus, some editors follow Pighius in prefixing an additional C to the numeral. The census reported in XXIX. xxxvii. 6 showed a population of 214,000 in 204 B.C.; in 188 B.C. (XXXVIII. xxxvi. 10) it was 258,318.

Livius and Claudius were censors in this year (XXIX. xxxvii. 1). See also sect. 6 below. thirteen years after the contract was let, Marcus Junius Brutus dedicated the temple, and gamesB.C. 191 were given by reason of the dedication, which Valerius Antias says were the first to be held with dramatic performances, and called the Megalesia.It is futile to try to determine just what Antias meant. Cf. XXXIV. liv. 3 for a similar statement. A
