Abstract


The censorship of Vespasian and Titus ended in 74 and not in 79 as has been argued by Professor Armando Torrent. Inscriptions naming Vespasian censor after 74 do not prove that he had become censor perpetuus, but rather show that Vespasian felt it enhanced his personal dignitas to be called censor.
