| 词条 | Mamilian commission |
| 释义 |
The Mamilian commission was established by Gaius Mamilius in 109 BC for the investigation of corruption and treason. Its jurors were pulled from the equestrian class, rather than the Senatorial class, launching an assault against corruption in the ruling Senatorial oligarchy. This broad assault against corruption across the state, in the opinion of Sallust, led to the commission conducting "[its] investigation[s] with harshness and violence, on hearsay evidence and at the caprice of the commons".[1] The Commission would have its independence significantly eroded in a bill passed in 106 by Quintus Servilius Caepio, which changed the jury pool from solely the equestrians to a mix of equestrians and Senators.
