  Trial of the Scipios   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Between 187 and 184 Scipio Africanus and his brother, Lucius, faced a number of vigorous legal challenges pertaining to aspects of their conduct in the recent war against Antiochus III (the "trials of the Scipios").
On the trials the ancient evidence is confusing: in 187 Cato persuaded the tribunes Petillii to charge Lucius with misappropriation of 500 talents of tribute from Antiochus (as war indemnity or personal booty?).
Lucius was stripped of his status as equites (the political order between senatus and plebs) in 184 BC.
