  2. 52 BCE
    (aged 38)
    Aedile

    Broughton: Plutarch (a) appears to place Favonius' aedileship before the electoral violence of late 53 and early 52, but also associates his games with those of Curio (whom he terms a colleague), who was absent from Rome in 53 and gave his games in honor of his father in 52 (b). Curio was not then an Aedile but was preparing for his candidacy for the aedileship of 50. Dio places Favonius' aedileship during the tribunate of Pompeius Rufus, which is dated in 52 (see Tribunes of the Plebs). Favonius was an unsuccessful candidate for the praetorship of 50 (c).
