Details
Lucius Sextius Lateranus was a Roman tribune of the plebs and is noted for having been one of two men (the other being Gaius Licinius) behind the Lex Licinia Sextia, permitting him in 366 BC to become what is often considered the "first plebeian consul". This last is a controversial statement as some historians consider that something near a third of early consuls have names stemming from plebeian families. It has been suggested that the later Roman historians, from whom we draw this claim, may have been coloring their own class struggles on this time period (See Conflict of the Orders). Whatever the truth behind the claim, the Lex Licinia Sextia worked to ensure that one of the two annually elected consuls could be plebeian. It was not until the Lex Genucia of 342 BC that one of the consuls had to be plebeian, despite contrary claims by some of our sources.
