Titus Romilius Rocus Vaticanus
Titus Romilius Rocus Vaticanus is a politician of the first century of the Roman République (O C). Of family Patrician, it is not the only one which became Consul.
In 455 av. J. - C., it is Consul with Caius Veturius Cicurinus during one time of strong tension between the Patriciens and the Plébéiens. Their representatives, the Tribuns of the plebs have in vain asserted for several years the setting in writings of the laws, to fight against the arbitrary one of the consuls.
The Latin city of Tusculum request assistance of Rome against the Èques which devastate its territory. The two consuls beat Èques with the Algide mount, but they on sale put the abundant spoils to reinflate the Treasury, frustrating of any profit their soldiers, primarily of the plebeian ones. In reprisals, and at the conclusion of their mandate, Veturius and Romilius are put in charge by the plebeian elected officials. Romilius is condemned by the Tribun of the plebs Caius Calvus Cicéron to pay a considerable fine of 10.000 ace
In 451 av. J. - C., it belongs to the first commission of the Décemvirs, which write the first written laws of Rome (Loi of the Twelve Tables) and which controlled during one year with moderation.
