1. Rutilius proceeds under the law mentioned in III. Iv. 7, that one who injured a tribune should forfeit his head to Jupiter, and that his property should be sold at the temple of Ceres, Liber and Libera; the ceremony of dedicating the man and his property to the gods might be performed by a tribune, cf. Cicero, De Domo Sua 47 (123-5), but apparently had to be confirmed by action of the people. Livy's phrasing seems to make Rutilius arrange for two trials for Claudius, but we hear of only one (below, 14-16) and it seems probable that the trial for treason, based on the charges mentioned, was the one action which was to confirm the sentence already pronounced by the tribune; also this sentence was probably directed equally against both, though Gracchus is named alone. For a trial of treason, the comitia centuriata was called, since a death-sentence was involved, not the comitia tributa, as above, viii. 9, cf. the note, nor the concilium plebis.
