LARCIUS (less accurately LARTIUS), TITUS

This article appears in Volume V16, Page 214 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LAP-LEO
LARCIUS (less accurately LARTIUS), TITUS , probably surnamed FL.avus a member of an
Etruscan
  family (cf. Lars Tolumnius, Lars
Porsena
 ) early settled in Rome. When
consul
  in 501 B.C. he was chosen dictator (the
title
  and
office
  being then introduced for the first time) to command against the thirty Latin cities, which had sworn to reinstate Tarquin in Rome. Other authorities put the
appointment
  three years later, when the plebeians refused to serve against the Latins until they had been released from the burden of their debts. He opposed harsh
measures
  against the Latins, and also interested himself in the improvement of the lot of the plebeians. His brother, Spurius, is associated with Horatius Cocles in the defence of the Sublician
bridge
  against the Etruscans.
See Livy ii. io, 18, 21, 29;
Dion
 . Halic. v. 50-77, vi. 37; Cicero, De Re Publica, ii. 32.
