But as these surnames did not mark distinct families, an ac­count of all the patrician Claudii is given under claudius, with the exception of those with the cognomen nero, since they are better known under the latter name.
The surnames of the plebeian Claudii are asellus, canina, centumalus, cicero, fla-ment, and marcellus, of which the last is by far the most celebrated.
The patrician Claudii were noted for their pride and arrogance, and intense hatred of the com­ monalty.

 CLAUDIUS - LoveToKnow Article on CLAUDIUS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The by-form Clodius, in its origin a mere orthographical variant, was regularly used for certain Claudii in late republican times, but otherwise the two forms were used indifferently.
The gens contained a patrician and a plebeian family; the chief representatives of the former were the Pulchri, of the latter the Marcelli (see MARcELLUS).
A full account of all the Claudii will be found in Pauly-Wissowas Realencyclopadie der classischen Alteutums,idssenschaft, iii.

 The Claudii   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
There are on record many distinguished services of the Claudii to their country, as well as many deeds of the opposite character.
It is notorious besides that all the Claudii were aristocrats and staunch upholders of the prestige and influence of the patricians, with the sole exception of Publius Clodius, who for the sake of driving Cicero from the city had himself adopted by a plebeian [60 B.C.] and one too who was younger than himself.
Their attitude towards the commons was so headstrong and stubborn that not even when on trial for his life before the people did any one of them deign to put on mourning or beg for mercy; and some of them during bickerings and disputes struck the tribunes of the commons.

Her father, on the other hand, was born Appius Claudius Pulcher and was adopted as an infant by M. Livius Drusus, tribune in 91 BC.
Livia thus carried the blood and prestige of both the Livii and the patrician Claudii, families long accustomed to power.
She brought to this union not only her Livian and Claudian ancestry but also her two sons, Tiberius and Drusus, heirs of the distinguished Claudii Nerones.

The patrician family of the Claudii (for there was a plebeian family of the same name, no way inferior to the other either in power or dignity) came originally from Regilli, a town of the Sabines.
They likewise received from the state, lands beyond the Anio for their followers, and a burying-place for themselves near the capitol [284].
It appears from record, that many of the Claudii have performed signal services to the state, as well as committed acts of delinquency.

Velleius Paterculus' Roman history -in fact a brief compendium and not a full-scale study of the past- is the most important source for the story of his life and family.
The Velleii belonged to the Roman equestrian order (the second level of the Roman aristocracy, after the senators), came from Capua in Campania, and had allied itself to the powerful aristocratic clan of the Claudii Nerones.
Caius Velleius' son Velleius remained on friendly terms with both the Claudii Drusi and Octavian, who became emperor in 27 and was from then on called Augustus.

In an analogous way successful sieges are healings of possessed, victories over Caecilii and Claudii are miraculous healings of blind and lame, the crossing of the stormy sea by the army is a walk on the lake.
Logically every besieged in the Caesar texts should correspond to a possessed in the Jesus story: we were able to see that this indeed was the case.
Once again we saw that this was the case: we found the people we sought in the figures we expected.

Some famous gentes are the Iulii, Claudii, Sempronii, Cornelii, Fabii, Aemilianii, Aurelii, Quinctii, Antoninii, and Sulpicii (replacing the last "-i" with "-us" will yield the nomina gentilicia, these are plural).
Any additional names were surnames, either cognomina (surnames to distinguish family branches) or agnomina (added names to an individual, rarely inherited; nicknames).
Some common cognomina were the Fabii Maximi, Iulii Caesares, Sempronii Gracchi, Cornelii Scipiones, Cornelii Sullae, Claudii Neroni, Claudii Marcelli, and Aurelii Cottae.

Before the editio princeps was published, a number of Latin translations appeared (from 1484) such as: Quadripartitum judiciorum opus Claudii Ptolemei Pheludiensis ab Joãne Sieurro brittuliano Bellovacesi pbelle recognitum.
All these translations, where the technical terms are effected by Arabic, are even more incorrect and more obscure than the original text, and I leave to others the trouble of comparing them with each other and with the text.

[3,1] I. Branche patricienne des Claudii (1) La famille patricienne des Claudii (car il y en eut aussi une plébéienne qui ne lui cédait ni en puissance ni en dignité) est originaire de Régille, ville des Sabins.
Mais, d'un commun accord, elle rejeta celui de Lucius, parce que deux de ses membres qui l'avaient porté furent convaincus, l'un de brigandage, l'autre de meurtre; (5) et, parmi ses surnoms, elle adopta celui de Néron, qui en langue sabine signifie brave et vaillant.

The text was translated by Wilibald PIRCKHEIMER, using the notes of Johannes REGIOMONTANUS, perhaps under the editorship of Johann HUTTICH; the ornamental woodblock designs on the reverse of the maps are attributed to Albrecht DURER, who also contributed the woodblock of the armillary sphere.
The text was newly edited by SERVETUS from Wilibald PIRCKHEIMER's text, used in the previous edition; the woodblock designs on the reverse of the maps are said to be the work of Hans HOLBEIN the Younger and GRAF.
