Reading notes
- Ad Atticum 1.19 §4 the consulship of P. Mucius and L. Calpurnius
Romans dated years by the names of the two consuls; this names 133 BC (P. Mucius Scaevola and L. Calpurnius Piso Frugi), the year of Tiberius Gracchus's agrarian commission, whose distributions Cicero's amendment seeks to confirm.
- Against Verres, Second Hearing, Book IV §108 in the consulship of Publius Mucius and Lucius Calpurnius
133 BC, the year of Tiberius Gracchus's killing. The Sibylline books were resorted to and the priests of the Roman people went to Henna to appease the most ancient Ceres --- the precedent for the Roman state's recognition of Hennensian Ceres as a Roman cult.
