Notes
- ↑ While identifying the Magister Equitum as the consul, Broughton notes that "If Fabius is the active cavalry officer described in battle under the Dictator (Livy 8.38.14ff.) he can hardly be the aged Consul of 354, who could very well have fulfilled the peaceful functions attributed by other sources ... to the Dictator and his staff": MRR1, p. 150, note 2.
