M. Tullius Cicero, For Marcus Fonteius (ed. C. D. Yonge), chapter 20 (search)
But the Gauls are attacking Fonteius with hostile standards as it were; they pursue him, and
press upon him with the most extreme eagerness, with the most extreme audacity. I see it. But
we, O judges, you being our helpers, with many and strong defences, will resist that savage
and intolerable band of barbarians. Our first bulwark against their attacks is Macedonia, a province loyal and well affected to the Roman
people, which says, that itself and its cities were preserved, not only by the wisdom, but
even by the hand of Fonteius, and which now repels the attacks and dangers of the Gauls from
his head, as it was defended itself from the invasion and desolation of the Thracians.
On the opposite side stands the further Spain, which is able in this case not only to withstand the
eagerness of the accusers by its own honest disposition, but which can even refute the

M. Tullius Cicero, On the Agrarian Law (ed. C. D. Yonge), chapter 19 (search)
He orders everything to be sold which belonged to the people of Attalia, and of Phaselus, and of Olympus, and the land of Agera, of Orindia, and of Gedusa. All this became your
property owing to the campaigns and victory of that most illustrious man, Publius Servilius.
He adds the royal domain of Bithynia, which is at
present farmed by the public contractors; after that, he adds the lands belonging to Attalus
in the Chersonesus; and those in Macedonia, which belonged to king Philip or king Perses; which
also were let out to contractors by the censors, and which are a most certain revenue.
He also puts up to auction the lands of the Corinthians,
rich and fertile lands; and those of the Cyrenaeans, which did belong to Apion; and the lands
in Spain near Carthagena; and those in Africa near the old Carthage itself—a place which Publius Africanus consecrated, not on
account of any religious feeling for the place itself
