Note 1051 — Chapter IV · THE MAGISTRACY (continued 2)

Liv. ix. 46 “forensis factio App. Claudi censura vires nacta, qui ... humilibus per omnes tribus divisis forum et campum corrupit.” Cf. Diod. xx. 46 (App. Claudius) ἔδωκε τοῖς πολίταις ὅποι προαιροῖντο τιμήσασθαι. Mommsen imagines that it was in this year that the landless citizens first found a place in the tribes (Staatsr. ii. 392 sq., 402 sq.).
