Attalicis condicionibus: by terms such as an Attalus could offer. The wealth of the Attalids, kings of Pergamon in Asia Minor, was proverbial. Attalus III. made the Romans his heir B.C. 133. His treasures impressed them somewhat as those of Charles of Burgundy did the rude Swiss who defeated him at Granson and Morat. Cf. 2. 18. 5, Otto, Sprichwörter der Römer, p. 44.
