•
Gaius Rabirius, an elderly senator brought to trial in 63 BC on a charge of
perduellio, based on his association with the mob that killed the
tribune of the plebs Lucius Appuleius Saturninus nearly forty years earlier. Rabirius was defended by
Cicero to no avail, but escaped death when the trial was interrupted by
Quintus Caecilius Metellus Celer. • Rabiria, sister of the senator Rabirius, married Gaius Curius, a
publican, and was the mother of Gaius Rabirius Postumus. •
Gaius Rabirius C. f. Postumus, born Gaius Curius, was adopted by his uncle, the senator Gaius Rabirius. He earned his fortune as a money-lender, and his chief client was
Ptolemy Auletes, the exiled King of
Egypt. He was subsequently tried and banished for
repetundae, or extortion, despite Cicero's defense in 54 BC, but was recalled by
Caesar, under whom he served during the
Civil War. •
