Verginia (gens) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Verginia (gens) The ''gens Verginia'' or ''Virginia'' was a prominent family at Rome, which from an early period was divided into patrician and plebeian branches. The ''gens'' was of great antiquity, and frequently filled the highest honors of the state during the early years of the Republic. The first of the family who obtained the consulship was Opiter Verginius Tricostus in 502 BC, the seventh year of the Republic. The plebeian members of the family were also numbered amongst the early tribunes of the people.〔''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor.〕 ==Origin of the gens== The orthography of the ''nomen Verginius'' or ''Virginius'' has been disputed since ancient times; but ''Verginius'' is the form usually found in both manuscripts and inscriptions. Modern writers seem to favor ''Virginius'', perhaps by analogy to ''virgo'', a maiden. A similar instance is presented by the nomen ''Vergilius'', which in modern times is often spelt ''Virgilius''.〔''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor.〕
