Broughton: Joining forces, Marius and Catulus together destroyed the Cimbri on July 30 (Roman calendar) near Vercellae (a). Extravagant praises and high honors (b) included the voting of a supplicatio of 15 days (c). He celebrated along with Catulus one triumph for his two victories (d). He set up memorials of his victory in Rome (e), and built a temple to Honos and Virtus (f). His renown as the saviour of his country, his political alliance with Saturninus and Glaucia, release of his soldiers to come to the elections in Rome, and according to Rutilius and others, bribery, all combined to secure his reelection over a Metellus, perhaps Numidicus, to a sixth consulship in 100 (g). Meantime Aquillius held command in Sicily in the war against the slaves (h; see 100, and 99, Promagistrates).

Broughton: The latest date possible under the Lex Villia.

Broughton: The latest possible date under the Lex Villia. In this year or the next he defeated the Scordisci in Thrace, and returned by 99 at the latest to celebrate a triumph (a).

Broughton: Grandfather of the Consul of 62. He attained the praetorship (a), and should probably be dated before 100.

Broughton: He issued as Quaestor a series of coins about 100 B.C., on some of which a victory over Gauls is celebrated (Cimbri and Teutoni?, Grueber, CRRBM 1.231-233, who is inclined to date him ca. 89 B.C.)

Broughton: Served under M. Antonius, when he was Proconsul, in the war against the Cilician pirates (a; see 102, Praetors, and 101, Promagistrates). Foucart (b) showed that the commander under whom Gabinius served was the famous orator, and not his less distinguished son, M. Antonius Creticus (see 74-71, Promagistrates). The title Proconsul points to 101 rather than 102 as the date (c; see below, Promagistrates, on Antonius).

Broughton: Presided over the tribunician elections for 100, in the course of which a successful candidate, Nonius, was murdered, and Saturninus hastily elected to his place (a). To his tribunate should be attributed the Lex Servilia Glauciae, which dealt once more with the quaestio de repetundis (b), making the juries wholly equestrian again (c), and providing for the recovery of funds from ultimate recipients as well as immediate culprits (d). There were provisions also that Latins who succeeded in a prosecution under this law should receive Roman citizenship (e); for a recess during public trials (comperendinatio, f); and perhaps also that those who were convicted under it should be debarred from addressing public meetings (g).
