The bishop angel sits upon an episcopal throne in the form of a curule chair. |
The curule aediles, who were the magistrates responsible for the care and supervision of the markets, also issued edicts. |
Until the 2nd century BC, the curule aedileships rotated on a yearly basis between patricians and plebeians. |
The curule aediles had responsibility for the ludi Romani and the Megalenses, which could be very expensive. |
There are also some fine whole length statues of roman magistrates, in their curule chairs. |
Senators were alone made eligible for the tribuneship, and no former Tribune could hold any curule office. |
