Career

  1. Praetor edit

    MT: some uncertainty about timing of this praetorship but given he was consul in 95 BCE Broughton believes this is the latest possible date.

  2. Consul edit

    MT: They carried a law to ban non-citizens from acting as Roman citizens and to re-register themselves into their allied communities (Cicero, De Oficiis 3.47). Crassus defended Q. Caepio from some unknown charge (Cicero Brut. 102), and repressed raiders in Cisalpine Gaul, but his demand for a triumph was vetoed by his colleague (Cic. Inv. 2.111, Consul; Pis. 62, and Ascon. 15 C; Val. Max. 3.7.6, Proconsul; see 94, Promagistrates). Scaevola resigned his province.
