Aemilia Paulla : ウィキペディア英語版 | Aemilia Tertia
Aemilia Tertia, better known as Aemilia Paulla (c. 230–163 or 162 BC〔Dixon, Suzanne. "Polybius on Roman Women and Property, " ''The American Journal of Philology'', Vol. 106, No. 2 (Summer, 1985), pp. 147-170.(). Google reference, not full article, retrieved 7 June 2007. The Dixon article claims that Aemilia died in 162 BC per her reading of Polybius. In Polybius ''The Histories'' Fragments of Book XXXI: 26-28, Aemilia's death and funeral, and Scipio Aemilianus's disposition of her effects are discussed, but no year is given for her death. However, her brother Lucius Aemilius Paulus Macedonicus is known to have died in 160 BC, and two years earlier, Scipio Aemilianus gave the remaining 50 talents owed the husbands of his adoptive paternal aunts. That transfer took place ten months after Aemilia's death, at which point he had given Aemilia's finery to his own mother. If Aemilius Paullus died in 160 BC, the money transfers took place in 162 BC and Aemilia died ten months earlier, either that year or in 163 BC.()〕), was the wife of Scipio Africanus (also known as Scipio the elder), Roman general and statesman. She was the daughter, possibly the third surviving daughter, of another Roman general Lucius Aemilius Paullus (consul in 216 BC who was killed at the Battle of Cannae of the Second Punic War) and sister of another famous Roman general Lucius Aemilius Paulus Macedonicus (consul 182 and 168 BC).〔''Scipio Africanus: Soldier and Politician'' by H. H. Scullard Cornell University Press Ithaca, New York 1970 printed in England. Standard Book Number 8014-0549-1; Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 76-98158 H. H. Scullard, ''Scipio Africanus: Soldier and Politician'', Thames and Hudson, London, 1970. ISBN 0-500-40012-1; page 196〕 ==Family and name== The name ''Aemilia'' derives from her family name ''(nomen)'', the ''gens Aemilia'' being one of the five most important patrician families. Roman women of the Middle Republic customarily bore their father's family name, and were sometimes distinguished by their birth order. As with men named ''Quintus'' ("the Fifth") or ''Sextus'' ("the Sixth"), a name such as ''Tertia'' may not always mean a woman had two older sisters. Valerius Maximus〔Valerius Maximus, ''Memorable Deeds and Sayings'' 6.7.1-3. L; see (Tertia Aemilia. )〕 gives her name as ''Tertia Aemilia'', "the wife of Scipio Africanus and the mother of Cornelia."〔Boccaccio, in ''On Famous Women'', also refers to her as Tertia Aemilia, and in the biography as just "Tertia" (in Virginia Brown's translation, Harvard University Press, 2001, pp 153 - 154; ISBN 0-674-01130-9).〕 Aemilia is not known to have had sisters, but younger sisters are sometimes more notable for the historical record than elder. Aemilia's daughters were Cornelia Africana Major and Cornelia Africana Minor, the younger being far more famous than her mother or elder sister.
