Note 1894 — Chapter XIII · THE COMITIA TRIBUTA AND THE RISE OF POPULAR SOVEREIGNTY From 449 to 287
Reading edition
Livy viii. 18. 3 ff.; Val. Max. ii. 5. 3; Oros. iii. 10; August. Civ. Dei, iii. 17. p. 124 Domb. The lex de veneficio mentioned by Livy, ep. viii, may refer to the act which established this court; but it would not be legitimate to argue from this expression a popular vote. The epitomator undoubtedly drew all his information from the text.
