  1. 88 BCE
    Praetor edit

    Refused Marius asylum in Africa when he fled from Sulla (a). A coin, published in Müller (Num. de l'Afrique, 2.51, no. 25, and p. 55; see Münzer, RE) was read to show that Sextilius was Pr(aetor) P(rovinciae) Af(ricae), or else Pr(o) P(raetore), etc., VII v(ir) ep(ulonum), but readings by Boissevain (ZN 29 [1912] 107-111) and Grant (From Imperium to Auctoritas 226f.) show that these coins are duoviral, that the source is the Julian colony of Hadrumetum, and the date Augustan.
