Note 2435 — Chapter XVI · COMITIAL LEGISLATION From the Gracchi to Sulla 134-82

Ascon. 21; Cic. Rab. Post. 4. 9; Balb. 23. 53; 24. 54. Cicero here informs us that by a provision of this law citizenship was offered to Latins as a reward for evidence in cases arising under it. This article was borrowed from the lex Acilia; p. 378. See also Val. Max viii. 1. 8; Cic. Brut. 62. 224; Greenidge, Hist. of Rome, i. 309-11. Proof of the repeal of the Acilian law no later than that year is the circumstance that on the reverse of the stone which contains it is inscribed the agrarian law of 111; Mommsen, CIL. i. p. 55 f.
