Titia (gens) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Titia (gens) The ''gens Titia'' was a plebeian family at Rome. The ''gens'' is rarely mentioned in the Republican period, and did not rise out of obscurity till a very late time. None of its members obtained the consulship under the Republic, and the first person of the name who held this office was Marcus Titius in BC 31.〔''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor.〕 ==Origin of the gens== The ''nomen Titius'' is a patronymic surname, based on the ''praenomen Titus'', which must have belonged to the ancestor of the gens. Titus was roughly the sixth-most common Latin praenomen throughout Roman history. However, it has been conjectured that it was introduced to Latin through Titus Tatius, a Sabine king in the time of Romulus, who came to Rome with many of his subjects. If ''Titus'' was originally a Sabine praenomen, then the Titii may have been Sabines. But it is also possible that ''Titus'' was common to both the Latin and Oscan tongues.〔Titus Livius, ''Ab Urbe Condita'', i. 13.〕〔''De Praenominibus'' (epitome by Julius Paris)〕〔George Davis Chase, "The Origin of Roman Praenomina", in ''Harvard Studies in Classical Philology'', vol. VIII (1897)〕
