The death of King Attalus and his wise rule are reviewed, while a major rebellion breaks out in Farther Spain, prompting action from the Roman senate.
eodem tempore Attalus rex aeger ab Thebis Pergamum advectus moritur altero et septuagesimo anno, cum quattuor et quadraginta annos regnasset.
At the same time, King Attalus, having been carried sick from Thebes to Pergamum, died in his seventy-second year, having reigned for forty-four years.
huic viro praeter divitias nihil ad spem regni fortuna dederat. iis1 simul prudenter, simul magnifice utendo: effecit, primum ut sibi, deinde ut aliis non indignus videretur regno.
To this man, fortune had given nothing toward the hope of a kingdom except riches. By using these both prudently and magnificently, he brought it about that he appeared not unworthy of the kingdom, first to himself, and then to others.
victis deinde proelio uno Gallis, quae tum gens2 recenti adventu terribilior Asiae erat, regium adscivit nomen, cuius magnitudini semper animum aequavit.
Then, having defeated in a single battle the Gauls, a nation which at that time, because of their recent arrival, was more terrible to Asia, he assumed the royal title, to the greatness of which he always equaled his mind.
summa iustitia suos rexit, unicam fidem sociis praestitit, comis uxori ac liberis —
He ruled his subjects with the greatest justice, showed singular fidelity to his allies, was gentle to his wife and children—
quattuor superstites habuit —, mitis ac munificus amicis fuit; regnum adeo stabile ac firmum reliquit, ut ad tertiam stirpem possessio eius descenderit.
he left four surviving—, and was mild and munificent to his friends; he left his kingdom so stable and firm that its possession descended to the third generation.
cum hic status rerum in Asia Graeciaque et Macedonia esset, vixdum terminato cum Philippo bello, pace certe nondum perpetrata, ingens in Hispania ulteriore coortum est bellum.
While this was the state of affairs in Asia, Greece, and Macedonia, with the war against Philip scarcely yet finished and peace certainly not yet fully concluded, a great war broke out in Farther Spain.
M. Helvius eam provinciam obtinebat. is litteris senatum certiorem fecit Culcham et Luxinium regulos in armis esse, cum Culcha decem et septem oppida, cum Luxinio validas urbes Carmonem et Baldonem, in maritima ora Malacinos Sexetanosque et Baeturiam omnem et quae nondum animos nudaverant ad finitimorum motus consurrectura.3
Marcus Helvius was governing that province. He informed the senate by letter that the petty kings Culchas and Luxinius were in arms, and that seventeen towns with Culchas, the strong cities of Carmo and Baldo with Luxinius, the people of Malaca and Sexi on the sea coast, all Baeturia, and those who had not yet disclosed their intentions would rise up together at the movement of their neighbors.
his litteris a M. Sergio praetore, cuius iurisdictio inter civis et peregrinos erat, recitatis decreverunt patres, ut comitiis praetorum perfectis, cui praetori provincia Hispania obvenisset, is primo quoque tempore de bello Hispaniae ad senatum referret.
When this letter had been read by the praetor Marcus Sergius, whose jurisdiction was between citizens and foreigners, the senators decreed that when the election of praetors was completed, whichever praetor obtained the province of Spain should refer the matter of the Spanish war to the senate at the earliest opportunity.
