L. Septimuleius

of Anagnia, although a friend of C. Gracchus, carried the head of the latter to the consul Opimius, and obtained for it its weight in gold, in accordance with a proclamation which had been made at the beginning of the contest. It is related that Septimuleius took out the brain, ;nd put melted lead in its stead, or, according to another version of the story, filled the mouth with lead. (Plut. C. Gracch. 17 ; V. Max. 9.4.3; Plin. Nat. 33.14; Cic. de Orat. 2.67.)
