ConsulshipsThe son of Spurius Carvilius Maximus, Carvilius was elected consul with Lucius Postumius Albinus for the year 234 BC. He carried on war with the Corsicans, and then with the Sardinians, over whom he obtained a triumph.[2] Carvilius was consul a second time in 228 BC with Quintus Fabius Maximus Verrucosus. Cicero reports that he did not object to the proposed agrarian law for dividing the lands of Gallia Cisalpina, although Polybius stated that this law was passed four years earlier.[3][4] Later careerFollowing the disaster of the Cannae, Carvilius noted the greatly diminished numbers of the Senate, and with note to the uncertain loyalty of Rome's Latin allies in the face of Hannibal's invasion, he proposed that two senators should be elected from each of the Latin tribes, thereby filling many vacancies, and uniting the Roman state with her closest allies. This proposal was dismissed with the utmost indignation and contempt.[5] Carvilius was an augur at the time of his death in 212 BC.[6] DivorceSome sources relate that Carvilius was the first person at Rome to have divorced his wife, which he did on grounds of barrenness. His conduct in this matter was generally disapproved. However, it may be noted that the laws of the Twelve Tables provided for divorce more than two centuries before Carvilius.[7][8][9][10] See alsoCarvilia (gens)Footnotes1. ^Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology, William Smith, Editor {{SmithDGRBM|title=Maximus, Carvilius (2)|volume=2|pages=987-88}}{{s-start}}{{s-off}}{{s-bef|before=Titus Manlius Torquatus 2. ^Joannes Zonaras, Epitome Historiarum, viii. 18. 3. ^Marcus Tullius Cicero, Cato, 4. 4. ^Polybius, The Histories, ii. 21. 5. ^Titus Livius, Ab Urbe Condita, xxiii. 22. 6. ^Titus Livius, Ab Urbe Condita, xxiv. 23. 7. ^Aulus Gellius, Noctes Atticae, iv. 3. 8. ^Valerius Maximus, Factorum ac dictorum memorabilium libri IX, ii. 1. § 4. 9. ^Barthold Georg Niebuhr, History of Rome, vol. iii., p. 355. 10. ^Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology, William Smith, Editor and Gaius Atilius Bulbus}}{{s-ttl|title=Consul of the Roman Republic|years=234 BC|regent1=Lucius Postumius Albinus}}{{s-aft|after=Quintus Fabius Maximus Verrucosus and Manius Pomponius Matho}}{{s-bef|before=Lucius Postumius Albinus and Gnaeus Fulvius Centumalus}}{{s-ttl|title=Consul of the Roman Republic|years=228 BC|regent1=Quintus Fabius Maximus Verrucosus}}{{s-aft|after=Publius Valerius Flaccus and Marcus Atilius Regulus}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Carvilius Maximus Ruga, Spurius}} 5 : Carvilii|3rd-century BC Romans|Roman Republican consuls|212 BC deaths|Year of birth unknown |
