Spurius
(359 words)
[German version] [1] Latin praenomen Latin praenomen, customary initial abbreviation originally S., then, as it became rarer, from
c. 100 BC, Sp. The rare
nomen gentile, Spurilius, is derived from its diminutive form, of which no record survives. Some evidence also survives from the Italic languages, e.g. Oscan Spuriis (the personal name identical to the
nomen gentile). The vocative formed the basis for the Etruscan personal name Spurie, attested from the 7th cent. BC on. The Etruscan
nomen gentile Spurie/ana- was absorbed into Latin in its later pronunciation as Spurinna…

Publius

Häufiges röm. Praenomen mit der Sigle
P.; ältester Beleg
Poplio- (CIL I2 4, 2832a; ca. 500 v. Chr.; Lapis Satricanus), danach griech. Πόπλιος. Der Name gehört etym. zu
populus (“Heer” > “Volk”). Die Herleitung aus dem Etr. muß abgelehnt werden, denn das seltene etr.
Puplie wurde aus einer ital. Sprache übernommen. Die Umbildung von
poplico- zu
pūblico- (nach
pūbēs) wurde auch auf das Praen. und sein Derivat, das Gent.

Postumus
(1,067 words)
[German version] [1] Roman praenomen Roman
praenomen , like other numerical
praenomina (Quintus) given to a child according to the order of his birth; the adjective
postumus ('last') refers to the birth 'after the father's death' (cf. P. [2]). The use of the name as a
praenomen is evident in Rome up to the 3rd cent. BC, after that only as a
cognomen . The wider geographical spread of *
Postumo- as an Italic personal name can be concluded from its Etruscan derivative, where it led to the formation of a
nomen gentile,
Pustmi-na- (CIE 8715), the equivalent to the Roman
Postumius. Steinbauer, Dieter…

Postumus
(964 words)
[English version] [1] Röm. Praenomen Röm. Praenomen, das wie andere der sog. “Numeralpraenomina” (Quintus) Kindern nach der Reihenfolge der Geburt gegeben wurde: das Adj.
p., “letzter”, meint hier “(weil) nach (dem Tod des Vaters) geboren” (vgl. P. [2]). Bei den Römern war P. bis ins 3. Jh. v. Chr. als Vorname in Gebrauch, dann nur noch als Cognomen. Die weitere Verbreitung eines ital. Individualnamens *
Postumo- läßt sich aus der Entlehnung ins Etr. erschließen, wo daraus ein Gent.
Pustmi-na- (CIE 8715) gebildet wurde; dies entspricht dem röm. Gent.

Quintus
(1,526 words)
[German version] [1] Common Roman praenomen Common Roman
praenomen ; abbreviation:
Q.; Greek Κόιντος/
Kóintos. It is identical to the ordinal
quīntus (‘fifth’); in Oscan-Umbrian, this name is represented by
Pompo and the like, with the
nomina gentilicia
Pomponius,
Pompeius,
Pontius. Like other so-called ‘numeral
praenomina’, the former individual name could be given to children according to their birth order in the early period. In no case is Q. derived from
quīntīlis (‘July’) because the name of this month is in turn already a derivative of
quīntus (Months, names of the). The
nomen ge…

[German version] I Greek (Τίτος/
Títos). [German version] [I 1] Companion of Paul Important 'assistant' and 'partner' of Paul (Paulus [II 2]; 2 Cor 8,23), of unknown origin. Taken by Paul to the Apostles' Convent in Jerusalem as a 'Gentile Christian', he was not compelled to be circumcised there, in spite of the demands of the Judaists (Gal 2:1-3). Paul sent T. to Corinth on several occasions as his negotiator (2 Cor 7:6 f.; 7:13 f.; he also appeared as an independent co-organizer of the collects: 8:6; 8:16 …

Sextus
(2,046 words)
I Greek [German version] [I 1] Author of a collection of 'gnomes' The name 'Sextus' is associated with a Greek collection of 610 maxims (Gnome) in all, known from two Greek MSS (Patm. 263, Vat. Gr. 742; Pap. Palau Rib. 225v,
c. AD 400 offers 21 'gnomes'); they probably originated
c. AD 200. Origenes [2] is the first to mention the title Σέξτου γνῶμαι (
Séxtou gnômai), remarking among other things that 'most Christians read them' (Orig. Contra Celsum 8,30). In about 399, Rufinus [II 6] Tyrannius translated a collection of 451 maxims into Latin, naming as author…

Vibius

Uncommon Latin
praenomen , abbreviation
V. The etymology of the name is unknown. Like the identical
nomen gentilicium, it derives from the Osco-Umbrian
Vībie/o-. Related
nomina gentilicia were
Vibidius, Vibuleius, Vibulenus. The
praenomen and its feminine equivalent
Vībia- were loaned into Etruscan as
Vipie and
Vipia respectively. The
nomen gentilicium formed from that,
Vipi(e)na, appears in Latinized form as
Vibenna . Steinbauer, Dieter (Regensburg) I. Republican period [German version] [I 1] V. Curius Prefect of Caesar, to whom troops of L. Manlius [I 18] Torquatu…

Tiberius
(2,375 words)
I Greek [German version] [I 1] Greek rhetor, prob. late 3rd/4th cent. (Τιβέριος/
Tibérios). Greek rhetor, probably of the late 3rd or 4th cents. AD, author of a small surviving treatise on figures (Περὶ τῶν παρὰ Δημοσθένει σχημάτων,
Perì tòn parà Demosthénei schēmáton, 'On the figures in Demosthenes'), which uses Apsines as its main source. The latter's dates (1st half of 3rd cent. AD) are thus the only point of reference for dating T. The treatise deals separately with figures of thought (1-22) and figures of speech (23-42; Figures). E…

Proculus
(644 words)
Roman praenomen (
P. Iulius, a contemporary of Romulus [1]), and secondarily a cognomen. Depending on the form, a diminutive (older *
prokelo-) of the stem *
proko- (~ classical
procus 'wooer, suitor'), it originally perhaps meant 'the one who demands or claims (the inheritance?)'.
Proca (King of Alba Longa) can also be regarded as etymologically connected. The
praenomen, which had already become rare at an early time, survived in derivatives, the gentilician names
Procilius and
Proculeius. Steinbauer, Dieter (Regensburg) [German version] [1] Roman jurist, 1st cent. The jurist fro…
