		Soon thereafter Marius ran for the curule aedileship and after losing ran unsuccessfully for the plebeian aedileship (Plutarch says the two defeats actually happened on the same day, but for technical reasons this is unlikely).
		Although he seems to have had a break with the Metelli as a result of his tribunate, the rupture was not permanent, since Q. Caecilius Metellus cos.
		It thus would seem that his tribunate did not represent a complete break with the Metelli (and the rupture in 119 may have been exaggerated after the fact in light of his later, much more serious disagreement with Metellus about Numidia).

		It was probably Cornelius, although there seems to have been some connection also with the Caecilii Metelli.
		If the elder Verres were originally a freedman or a kinsman of Sulla, and raised l>y him to senatorian rank, he would take in the one case or he would bear in the other the gentile name of Cornelius.
		But Sulla's fourth wife was Caecilia Metella, daughter of L. Caecilius Metellus Dalmaticus [No. 13], and through her Verres, when it suited him, may have claimed affinity with the Metelli.

		The Marii were the inherited clients of the Caecilii Metelli and a Caecilius Metellus had aided Marius's campaign for the tribunate.
		Although he seems to have had a break with the Metelli as a result of the laws he passed while tribune, the rupture was not permanent, since in 109 BC Quintus Caecilius Metellus took Marius with him as his legate on his campaign against Jugurtha.
		Legates (legati) were originally simply envoys sent by the Senate, but men appointed as legates by the Senate were used by generals as subordinate commanders, usually becoming the general's most trusted lieutenant.

	Caecilii Metelli
		The Post Gracchan period is the time when the Caecilii Metelli came to dominate Roman politics.
		In the later period we find descendents of Macedonicus aiding Cicero in his early career against the abuses of Sullans, and Metellus Celer taking a position that opposes the worst reactionaries among the Optimates, yet also opposes moves by Populares like Caesar.
		The Caecilii Metelli who descend from Macedonicus I take as a centrist axis.

		As regards the first issue Hänninen observes that Caecilia Metella's dream was taken seriously in spite of the fact that she was a woman: it was recognized as an official prodigy and led to the restoration of the temple.
		She tries to explain the success of Caecilia Metella's 'initiative' by drawing attention to the fact that she was a member of a very distinguished family, the Caecilii Metelli.
		Moreover, she herself was an influential woman, praised by Cicero for the 'male' virtues of virtus, fides and diligentia (Cic.

	Survivors
		To consider who held power at any one time, who survived, who won out and why, I think you have to break down the competing forces more than to simply say Marians fought Sullans, or pose the later factions that grew out of the Civil War as simply Populares and Optimates.
		The Caecilii Metelli pose an interesting group at the center of all the political conflicts from around 147 on.
		I think I would start with them as a way of sorting out what divisions existed among the senatorials during the transition from the Post Gracchan period to the Post Sulla period.

	Rome total war
		The answer to this problem was to a great extent solved by the Consul Caius Marius, a roman citizen from the small town of Arpinum in the Volscian region.
		Marius was a client of the powerful Caecilii Metelli family and a “New Man” (Novus Homo, someone not of the nobility, but wealthy and politically powerful) and uncle of Gaius Julius Caesar.
		Marius, an organisational and political genius, passed laws that allowed the conscription of the poor and landless (the Proletarii and Plebeian classes) into the army and set their term of service at twenty campaigns.

		A key was his use of missiles to frighten the onrushing elephants into turning around and charging back into their own lines.
		On this occasions some of the elephants were even captured and taken back to Rome, to be paraded through the streets in the triumphal procession; nor did their propaganda value end there, as they appeared also on coins minted under the auspices of the Caecilii Metelli.
		The Graeco-Roman stereotype about the Punic national character seems to have a grain of truth in it, at least if one compares the contrasting fortunes of the two navies.
