20.Cicero, Ad Familiares 7.26.2.

1. Appian, Civil War 2.118-19; Suetonius, Life of Caesar 82.3-4; Appian, Civil War 2.134.
2. Cicero, Ad Familiares 11.1.1: the dating is famously disputed, some delaying this letter until 20 March.
3. Cicero, Ad Atticum 14.13.6.
4.Against Suetonius, 84.2,1 set Cicero, Ad Atticum 14.10, 14.11, 14.22 and Philippic 2.91, pointing to more. Surely Appian, Civil War 2.144-7, is usable evidence of what did go on.

5.Suetonius, Life of Nero 44.1; I disagree with P. A. Brunt, in Scripta Classica Israelica (1974), 80; a 'levy' (dilectus) is either of auxiliaries or of volunteers (Tacitus, Histories 3.58, is a good example).

CHAPTER 45. THE J U LI O-CLAU D I AN S
1. H. Dessau (ed.), Inscriptiones Latinae Selectae, 5026; I owe this to C. E. Stevens. It was not adduced by R. Syme; J. Scheid, Les Freres Arvales (1975), 87, does cite it, and R. Syme, The Augustan Aristocracy (1986), 415, then dismisses it, quite unconvincingly.
