After the establishment of other magistracies, especially the censorship and tribuneship, consular authority was further limited. |
The crimes which had disgraced the stormy tribuneship of Shaftesbury had been fearfully expiated. |
Tiberius next filled up the vacant tribuneship by getting one of his own dependents put into the office. |
When the term of his tribuneship expired, Tiberius presented himself for re-election. |
In 123 he stood for the tribuneship and was a second time elected in the following year. |
Senators were alone made eligible for the tribuneship, and no former Tribune could hold any curule office. |
