List Of Roman Consuls
This is a list of consuls known to have held office, from the beginning of the Roman Republic to the latest use of the title in Imperial times, together with those magistrates of the Republic who were appointed in place of consuls, or who superseded consular authority for a limited period. Background Republican consuls From the establishment of the Republic to the time of Augustus, the consuls were the chief magistrates of the Roman state, and normally there were two of them, so that the executive power of the state was not vested in a single individual, as it had been under the kings. As other ancient societies dated historical events according to the reigns of their kings, it became customary at Rome to date events by the names of the consuls in office when the events occurred, rather than (for instance) by counting the number of years since the foundation of the city, although that method could also be used. If a consul died during his year of office, another was elected to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Gaius Vettius Sabinianus Julius Hospes
Gaius Vettius Sabinianus Julius Hospes ( fl. 2nd century) was a Roman military officer and senator. He was born into the equestrian order, possibly in North Africa.

He was appointed a special representative of the Emperor on several occasions. He was governor successively of four turbulent Roman frontier provinces.

Savinian And Potentian
Saints Savinian and Potentian (french: Savinien et Potenti(e)n) (d. 390) are martyrs commemorated as the patron saints and founders of the diocese of Sens, France. Savinian should not be confused with another early French martyr, Sabinian of Troyes. Gregory of Tours does not mention them, nor does the ''Hieronymian Martyrology'', which was revised before 600 at Auxerre or Autun. One source states that "it is considered likely that Sabinian and Potentian were bishops of Sens, with Potentian succeeding Sabinian." On the other hand, one source calls only Sabinian a bishop; and also states that they had been sent to Sens "by the Roman Pontiff to preach the Gospel, and they rendered illustrious that city by the martyrdom following their confession of faith." Later traditions made them earlier saints as disciples of Saint Peter. A tradition states that they initially preached at Ferrières in the Gâtinais before preaching at Sens. Another states that Savinian was killed with an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Sabinian School
The Sabinian school was one of the two important schools of Law in Rome during the 1st and 2nd centuries CE. The Sabinians took their name from Masurius Sabinus but later were known as ''Cassians'' after Sabinus' student, Cassius Longinus. Sabinian views were based on the teachings of Gaius Ateius Capito, Sabinus' instructor and an adherent of conservatism in the reign of Augustus (27 BCE–14 CE). Among the few characteristics discernible in the attitude of the Sabinians was a legal conservatism reflecting their founder. In opposition to the Sabinians was the Proculeian school. A rivalry between the schools lasted well into the 2nd century, when they were united. The most famous head of the Sabinians was Salvius Julianus who succeeded Javolenus Priscus as head of the school.Tony Honoré Anthony Maurice Honoré, (30 March 1921 – 26 February 2019) was a British lawyer and jurist, known for his work on ownership, causation and Roman law.John Gardne''Tony Honoré as Teacher ...
