Consulship
In 486 BC Proculus Verginius Tricostus Rutilus and Spurius Cassius Vecellinus were elected Consul. Verginius marched against the Aequi and opposed the agrarian law of his colleague Cassius. Cassius was accused of trying to create support in the populace and allies to seek kingship. In a partisan struggle, Verginius sided with the Roman patricians, and Cassius the Roman plebeians.
