  1. Appius Claudius Crassus

    Appius Claudius Crassus PW 123 was a decemviri decemvir of the Roman Republic ca 451 BC . His father was Appius Claudius Sabinus, Consul in 471 BCE Despite being of Patrician ancient Rome patrician descent, he supported the plebeian wish for a code of laws, and while in office shared power with their representatives. Thus a decemviri council of ten was established to ratify new laws, a process where the decemvirs had total authority over Rome, even suspending the current powers of the tribunes and other administrative officers. Although Appius served on full year term to ratify Rome s new laws off the Greek model, his council convinced the public to have them serve another annual term as decemvirs in order to ratify two more engraved tables to the laws which would become the Twelve Tables of Rome . When it came time to re appoint a new council of ten lawmakers, the Patrician ancient Rome patrician s became suspicious that Appius growing popularity would gain for him enough favor to be re appointed. So they pressed upon Appius to propose who should serve in the next decemviri. To everyone s surprise he proposed himself to sit on the next council, whereas everyone thought he would decide to act modestly by declining the offer and not adding his name to the list. The people became even more suspicious once Appius increased the traditional size of the guarding body of lictor s from ... facts are scanty and dubious.

  1. Appius Junius Silanus

    Appius Junius Silanus , whom Cassius Dio erroneously calls Gaius Appius Silanus , was Roman consul consul in AD 28, with Publius Silius Nerva . He was accused of majestas in AD 32, but was saved by Celsus, one of the informers. Shortly after the accession of Claudius , in AD 41, when Silanus was governor of Hispania Tarraconensis , he was recalled to Rome and married to Domitia Lepida , mother of the empress Valeria Messalina Messalina . He was treated with the greatest of distinction, but having refused the advances of Messalina herself, he was soon put to death by the emperor. Messalina and Narcissus accused him of plotting to assassinate Claudius, and claimed that they had seen Silanus attempting to murder the emperor in their dreams.
