[1308] A monk who lived 1494-1567. For his view see Drackenborch’s commentary on Livy i. 43. To the 350 centuries of juniors and seniors he added 35 or 70 centuries of knights and a century of proletarians, making a total of 386 or 421 respectively. No scholar now holds to more than 18 equestrian centuries. With this and a few other variations as to supernumerary centuries his view has been adopted by Savigny, Vermischte Schriften, i. 1 ff.; Mommsen, Röm. Trib.; Genz, Centuriatcom. nach der Ref.; Ihne, Hist. of Rome, iv. 15; Herzog, Röm. Staatsverf. i. 324; Klebs, in Zeitschr. d. Savignyst. xii (1892). 181-244; Schiller, Röm. Alt. 633; Kübler, in Pauly-Wissowa, Real-Encycl. iii. 1956 ff.; Greenidge, Rom. Publ. Life, 253; Le Tellier, Organ. cent. 89 ff.; Göttling, Gesch. der röm. Staatsverf. 383; Peter, Epoch. d. Verfassungsgesch. 75; Morlot, Comices élect. 85 ff.

[1310] There must have been in the reformed comitia two curators from each class for every tribe. This connection with the classes was wrongly transferred to the tribunes of the plebs by Livy iii. 30. 7; Ascon. 76.
