Argos; an honorary decree for Cn. Octavius, who was a member of an embassy to the Achaean
League; the person was the consul of the year:...υπάτου στραταγοϋ τών Τωμαίων.
Remarks: The date at the end of the decree (1. 25) is discussed by P. Charneux, BCH 114, 1990,
398, n. 20 (SEG 40, 1990, 322) and interpreted not as that of the assembly's vote of
the resolution (cf. Moretti, ISE I, no. 42; cf. SEG 25, 1971, 363) but as the "date de
l'enregistrement de la clause finale" which should be reported the next year. Cf. P.
Marchetti, "La marche du calendrier romain et la chronologie à l'époque de la
bataille de Pydna", BCH 100, 1976, 402-426 and especially 418 ff. for the date. E.
Lanzillotta, "Cn. Ottavio e gli Argivi", Studi pubblicati dall Istituto Italiano per la
Storia Antica 27, 1978,233-247 discusses the circumstances of Octavius' embassy to
the Achaean League and dates this decree in the early spring 169 B.C. (SEG 28,
1978, 394); contra V.M. Warrior, "Livy, Book 42. Structure and chronology",
Ai AH 6, 1981, 1-50 about the Roman calendar and the date of the battle of Pydna
(SEG 37, 1987, 277; BullÉpigr 1988, 603).
He is perhaps to be identified with the consul of the year 170 B.C., A. Hostilius
Mancinus, see Liv. XLIII. 17, 10; Polyb. XXVIII. 3-5; cf. F. Münzer, RE Vili 2
(1913) 2507-2508 s.v.Hostilius [16]; Broughton, Magistrates I, 419-420.
