Reading notes
- Ad Atticum 2.2 §2 than from Procilius
Procilius, a Roman antiquarian writer on early Rome and its topography, whom Cicero ranks far below the learned Dicaearchus.
- Ad Quintum Fratrem 2.6 §1 Procilius swears that this has happened to no man before
Procilius, a Roman senator, attests that no commander had ever before been refused a thanksgiving --- underscoring how exceptional the Senate's snub of Gabinius was.
