10 Thus P. and Cn. Scipio from 218 to 212 B.C. collected money to pay their soldiers from local inhabitants (Liv. 21.61.6-11; 23.48.5), and P. Scipio, the future Africanus, levied Stipendium from his allies for the same purpose in 206 (Liv. 28.25.9-15; 28.29.12; 28.34.11).

14 The earliest instance in Claudius' letter to the Hymnodoi of Hypaepa of A.D. 41 (IGRR IV 1608 = Oliver, Greek constitutions no. 21), where he styles himself άνθύπ[ατος (1.18). The milestone from the via Augusta near Barcelona (CIL II 6242, 6324a) cited by Licandro, [Tessera Paemeiobrigensis 66)Google Scholar is from the reign of Caracalla, not that of Claudius (see now IRC 1185).

18 Praenomina written out in full are very rare in the Republican period. In ILLRP (index Xlla), Degrassi notes 10 cases, apart from those in verse inscriptions, of which only one, on a curse tablet, is of a common Roman praenomen (Tito Paconio, on ILLRP 1150).
