The senate decided on individual postwar treatments for each Latin tribe according to their merits and demerits. While those who maintained loyalty were granted citizenship and privileges, those who led the rebellion faced severe punishments such as land confiscation, exile, and prohibition of assemblies, and the beaks of the Antiate ships were used to adorn the platform in the Forum.
principes senatus relationem consulis de summa rerum laudare,1 sed, cum aliorum causa alia esset, ita expediri posse consilium dicere, ut pro merito cuiusque statueretur, si de singulis nominatim referrent populis.
The leading men of the senate praised the consul’s report on the general situation, but said that, since the cause of some was different from that of others, the plan could be carried out in such a way that a decision might be made according to the merit of each, if they should refer the case of the peoples individually by name.
relatum igitur de singulis decretumque. Lanuvinis civitas data sacraque sua reddita cum eo, ut2 aedes lucusque Sospitae Iunonis communis Lanuvinis municipibus cum populo Romano esset. Aricini Nomentanique et Pedani eodem iure, quo Lanuvini, in civitatem accepti, Tusculanis servata civitas, quam habebant, crimenque rebellionis a publica fraude in paucos auctores versum.
Therefore, it was referred and decreed concerning each individually. To the Lanuvini citizenship was given and their sacred rites were restored, with the condition that the temple and grove of Juno Sospita should be common to the citizens of the municipium of Lanuvium and the Roman people. The Aricini, Nomentani, and Pedani, with the same right as the Lanuvini, were received into citizenship; for the Tusculani, the citizenship which they had was preserved, and the guilt of rebellion was turned from a public fraud upon a few instigators.
in Veliternos, veteres cives Romanos, quod totiens rebellassent, graviter saevitum; et muri deiecti et senatus inde abductus iussique trans Tiberim habitare, ut eius, qui cis Tiberim deprehensus esset, usque ad mille assium clarigatio esset nec prius quam aere persoluto is, qui cepisset, extra vincula captum haberet.3
Against the Veliterni, ancient Roman citizens, because they had rebelled so many times, severe measures were taken; both their walls were thrown down and their senate was removed from there, and they were ordered to dwell across the Tiber, so that for anyone of them who should be caught on this side of the Tiber, there should be a liability of up to a thousand asses, nor should the one who had captured him hold him outside of chains before the money was fully paid.
in agrum senatorum coloni missi, quibus adscriptis speciem antiquae frequentiae Velitrae receperunt.
Into the land of their senators, colonists were sent, by whose enrollment Velitrae recovered the appearance of its ancient population.
et Antium nova colonia missa cum eo, ut Antiatibus permitteretur, si et ipsi adscribi coloni vellent; naves inde longae abactae interdictumque mari Antiati populo est et civitas data.
And a new colony was sent to Antium, with the condition that it should be permitted to the Antiates, if they themselves also wished to be enrolled as colonists; their warships were removed from there, and the Antiate people were forbidden the sea, and citizenship was given to them.
Tiburtes Praenestinique agro multati, neque ob recens tantum rebellionis commune cum aliis Latinis crimen, sed quod taedio imperii Romani cum Gallis, gente efferata, arma quondam consociassent. ceteris Latinis populis conubia commerciaque et concilia inter se ademerunt. Campanis, equitum honoris causa, quia cum Latinis rebellare noluissent, Fundanisque et Formianis, quod per fines eorum tuta pacataque semper fuisset via, civitas sine suffragio data. Cumanos Suessulanosque eiusdem iuris condicionisque, cuius Capuam,4 esse placuit.
The Tiburtes and Praenestini were fined in land, not only on account of the recent common crime of rebellion with the other Latins, but because once, through weariness of Roman rule, they had associated their arms with the Gauls, a savage nation. From the other Latin peoples, the rights of intermarriage, commerce, and assemblies among themselves were taken away. To the Campani, for the sake of honoring their knights, because they had been unwilling to rebel with the Latins, and to the Fundani and Formiani, because the passage through their territories had always been safe and peaceful, citizenship without the right of suffrage was given. It was decided that the Cumani and Suessulani should have the same right and condition as Capua.
naves Antiatium partim in navalia Romae subductae partim incensae, rostrisque earum suggestum in foro exstructum adornari placuit, Rostraque id templum appellatum.
The ships of the Antiates were partly hauled up into the dockyards at Rome, partly burned, and it was decided that the platform erected in the Forum should be adorned with their beaks, and that sacred place was called “Rostra”.
- 8.14.1laudare
Historical infinitive, used with the nominative subject principes senatus with the force of an imperfect indicative (laudabant). Similarly, dicere is also a historical infinitive.
- 8.14.2cum eo, ut
An idiomatic expression indicating a condition, meaning "on the condition that..." or "with this proviso, that..." and taking the subjunctive (esset) in the ut-clause.
- 8.14.6captum haberet
A construction combining the verb habeo with the perfect passive participle captum (signifying the continuation of the state resulting from the action), meaning "to keep him captured." This is an early example of the periphrastic perfect that led to the compound tenses in Romance languages.
- 8.14.11Capuam
Instead of the nominative Capua in the relative clause introduced by cuius (whose antecedents are iuris condicionisque), Capuam is attracted into the accusative by the accusative subject Cumanos Suessulanosque of the main infinitive clause.
