"Asinius Lupus" - seemingly a misnomer
[edit]The Apocolocyntosis passage (c.13) has been misconstrued:
Deinde praefecti duo Iustus Catonius et Rufrius Pollio. Deinde amici Saturninus Lusius et Pedo Pompeius et Lupus et Celer Asinius consulares.
Cf. Tacitus, Annals 13.43:
ii acerbitate accusationis Q. Pomponium ad necessitatem belli civilis detrusum, Iuliam Drusi filiam Sabinamque Poppaeam ad mortem actas et Valerium Asiaticum, Lusium Saturninum, Cornelium Lupum circumventos.
In other words, it is a question not of an "Asinius Lupus" but of a Cornelius Lupus.

Dates?
[edit]I think that the dates here (and probably in lots of other articles, but this is the one I'm looking at) should be changed from "BC" and "AD" to "BCE" and "CE". Is that ok to do? Perhaps someone could point me to a WP policy on dates, Thanks. Bookgrrl holler/lookee here 16:19, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
