Ave Livia,

I think it's great that you get your tasks done quickly Livia, I commend you.
And my congrats to Mari on his Legate appointment, but my question is Livia
who are the legal
betters? Just out of curiousity, it' makes me wonder.

Salve, Tink:

A fair and gracious question, that I'm happy to answer. I claim no supremacy of
legal or ethical judgement. The list of my "legal betters" is based on my own
assessment of their experience and fairmindedness in legal, administrative, and
political issues, and/or their demonstrated adherance to sound reasoning and
ethics. There are others as well who I might have easily chosen.

- Titus Labienus Fortunatus (philosopher)
- Nicholas Moravius Vado (public administrator)
- Marcus Marcius Rex (lawyer)
- M. Mucius Scaevola Magister (professor of Roman Law)
- M. Marius Merullus (paterfamilias)

Marius Peregrinus will also be consulted before I make my decision. I am also
reviewing the cited Nova Roman law myself to weigh its applicability.

Livia Cornelia Aurelia

Salvete,

Congratulations to all the successful candidates-elect, may your
obvious hard work and success continue in the new year. Avete!
Congratulations especially to Censor-elect Lucius Equitius
Cincinnatus, and consuls-elect Flavius Vedius Germanicus and Marcus
Cassius Iulianus! There are no better hands that the Republic could
be placed in than those of these three men.


A technical note: the results of those offices elected by the Comitia
Centuriata and the Comitia Populi Tributa should not have been
announced by the tribunes of the plebs but should have been announced
by the presiding magistrates--the consuls--here in this forum. Nova
Roman law is quite explicit on this point.

Valete,

Decius Iunius Palladius Invictus,
Senator, Consularis

Subject: [novaroma] REPUBLICATION OF EDICT APPOINTING LEGATE: AMERICA AUSTROCCIDENTALIS
From: gmvick32@--------
Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2000 10:54:06 -0700
FOLLOWING EDICT IS REPUBLISHED USING THE ROMAN NAME (as
close as I know it -- if the name is not technically correct
per the records, I don't have access to the records to know
the exact Roman name on file) OF THE APPOINTED LEGATE.

Salvete, Quirites:

At the pleasure of the quirities of America
Austroccidentalis, I, Livia Cornelia Aurelia, do REISSUE
this
the fourth edictum of my tenure as Propraetrix of
America Austroccidentalis.

The purpose of this edictum is to appoint a Legate for the
administration of the territory Austroccidentalis Solus
Astrum (regios of Texas and Oklahoma).

Done this 21st day of December, 2000, in the consulship of
Quintus Fabius Maximus and Marcus Minucius Audens.

In service,
Livia Cornelia Aurelia, Propraetrix

EX DOMO PROPRAETORIS AMERICA AUSTROCCIDENTALIS

Propraetorial Edict Appointing a Legate to the Territory
Austroccidentalis Solus Astrum, America Austroccidentalis

GIVEN: That territories inside America Austroccidentalis
have been established to foster local Nova Roma presence and

identity on a territory-by-territory basis and for ease of
administrative oversight of the provincia; and

GIVEN: The publication of Propraetorial Edicta establishing

territories and providing for the administration of
territories issues November 29, 2000; and

GIVEN: That a qualified candidate has presented for the
Legateship, based on record of past service to Nova Roma and

desire to serve Nova Roma in the future:

It is the stated intention of the Propraetrix to provide a
positive opportunity for the Legate to reaffirm his desire
and ability to serve Nova Roma with this appointment and to
grow as a citizen through the chance to perform good works
visible to the Senate and People of Nova Roma.

I. LUCIA MARIA PEREGRINA is hereby appointed as Legate,
territory of Austroccidentalis Solus Astrum, until such time

as it is no longer the pleasure of the Propraetrix to retain

the services of PEREGRINA for whatever reason.

II. The duties of PEREGRINA as Legate will primarily be
the establishment of events local to the regio of Texas, and

secondly administrative responsibilities both for the
territory of appointment and the provincia as assigned by
the Propraetrix.

III. Where duties to the province of PEREGRINA as Legate
conflict with the terms and conditions of the Legate's
readmittance to Nova Roma in the judgement of the
Propraetrix and upon the express counsel of the Legate's
paterfamilias, said terms of readmittance will take
precedence and the duties of the Legate will be
reapportioned.

Subject: [novaroma] ATTN (Religio Romana): ante diem XII Kalendas Ianuarias (December 21st)
From: "Antonio Grilo" <amg@-------->
Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2000 18:47:28 -0800
Salvete omnes

This is a dies nefastus publicus (NP), a day for special religious
observance in which no legal action can take place.

Today is the Divalia or Angeronalia. Angerona represents the anguish of the
Winter Solstice, when the old Sun is departing and there is no certainty
that the new Sun will come to restart the yearly cycle of the Seasons. In
this day, the Pontfices sacrifice at the Curia Acculeia and at the shrine of
Volupia which stays at the northwest angle of the Palatine Hill (Varro, De
Lingua Latina, 6.23; Macrobius, Saturnalia, 1.10.7). The image of Angerona
has her mouth bandaged and sealed (Macrobius, Saturnalia, 1.10.8). According
to the late Roman writer Macrobius, Angerona is at the altar of Volupia in
order to symbolize that when one hides his anguishes, one arrives at an
extreme pleasure (Macrobius, Saturnalia, 1.10.8).

Today "we offer the sacrifice of a pregnant sow, bread and sweet wine to
Hercules and Ceres" (Macrobius, Saturnalia, 3.11.10).

Today is the fifth day of the Saturnalia.

The month of December is sacred to Vesta.


Valete in pace deorum
Antonius Gryllus Graecus
Pontifex

Subject: [novaroma] Public Notice: Change of Chatroom Handle
From: Marius the Wanderer <peregrinus@-------->
Date: Date header was inserted by mta2.rcsntx.swbell.net
Salvete omnes...

This Notice is to inform the Nova Roman public and the Magistrates who
serve it that I shall now be using the handle 'PeregrinePrimus' in the
Forum Romanum Chat. My name (for most purposes) is now Lucius Marius
Peregrinus, so it is not appropriate for me to use 'MariusFimbria' any
longer. (As for why 'PeregrinePrimus' instead of 'MariusPeregrinus'
vel simile...what can I say, I like the 'Romanesque' fiction of Avram
Davison!)
