sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 04/03/2015 6:37 pm Found out a bit more about a 'Tribune'. Little to do with the Roman Army. Instead, he had the power to propose legislation or the veto legislation. Report this Post to the Staff
antwerpen2306 Pillar of the Community Belgium 1194 Posts	Posted 04/05/2015 10:09 am tribunicia potestas in this case is the power hold by a tribunus plebis : a representative of the people . The institut op trib.pl. was created in the beginning of the Roman republic , but became important with the 2 brothers Gracchi ,Tiberius and Caius Gracchus.Born in a very aristocratic family , the defended the people (plebs).Both were murdered in the second half of the first century.There is an evolution in the function and the power of the trib. pot , with later give the right of a veto against the consuls,but not against the censor or the dictator.Because the trib.pot. represented thepower of the people , all the emperors had the title with tribunician power ,as one of the foundations of their power , together with Pontifex Maximus and the imperium maius (Imperator),as we can see on the coins.albert Report this Post to the Staff
