Cilnia (gens) : ウィキペディア英語版
Cilnia (gens)
The ''gens Cilnia'' was an Etruscan family during the time of the Roman Republic. The ''gens'' is best known from Gaius Cilnius Maecenas, a trusted friend and advisor of Augustus, who was famous for his immense wealth and patronage of the arts.〔''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor.〕
==Origin of the gens==
The Cilnii hailed from the Etruscan town of Arretium, where they were amongst the local nobility, and may perhaps have held the kingly dignity in ancient times. Their ''nomen'' was originally written ''Cfelne'' or ''Cfenle'', which was subsequently Latinized as ''Cilnius'', much as the Etruscan ''Lecne'' became ''Licinius''. The Cilnii were driven from their native town by an opposing party in 301 B.C., but were restored by the Romans, and ever afterwards were supporters of Roman interests.〔Karl Otfried Müller, ''Die Etrusker'', i. p. 414.〕〔''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor.〕
