I do not know, it was not me who added the "dagger" sign.- Panairjdde 16:43, 9 December 2005 (UTC)Īccordng to this articles figures, 80,000 Romans suffered 112,000 deaths.Īctually they do make sense. (I could be wrong of course) - Fdewaele 9 December 2005 from where did you gather that information? As I always was under the impression he survived Arausio but his sons died. I've seen worse (for instance the Zapatero article.). the name Mallius should be used at Wikipedia as well.īetter now?- Panairjdde 10:44, 9 December 2005 (UTC) Definately! An other argument peacefully settled. :) Nice to have a civilized discussion. The fact remains that all official usage of his name, including in the current academical world and the Varronian chronology as well, uses Mallius. so no new noble family got created and the name probably died out. also I believe his sons were killed at Arausio and he was banned after it from Rome, meaning he probably was the last of his family as well. but if he was a new man the fact no such gens is known could be explained by the fact that his forefathers were simple plebs and not one of the more notable families which are known by name, gens and clan. In that case, Mallius could be simply a corruption of Manlius.- Panairjdde 10:11, 2 December 2005 (UTC) What I am saying is that no gens Mallia ever existed. (there are plenty others as well if you google) Mallius Maximus.Īll mention or list Mallius as consul in 105 as well. It clearly gives as consuls for the year 105 BC: P. Look at this list of Roman consuls of the University of ALberta: a "New Man", he was his own ancester whereas the old gens Manlia were patrician. That's because the consul we are discussing was a homus novo. Fdewaele 22:37, 28 September 2005 (CET)īecause there was a gens Manlia, but, as far as I know, no gens Mallia.- Panairjdde 16:53, 1 December 2005 (UTC) Why change the name of the consul leading one of the Roman armies to Manlius? Every single reference I've seen says he was named Gnaeus Mallius Maximus as it originally was before the edit by Panairjdde.
