Synopsis "Lucius Opimius"

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Lucius Opimius was Roman consul in 121 BC, most infamously known for during his consular year ordering the death of 3,000 supporters of popular leader Gaius Gracchus without trial, using a state of emergency declared after Gracchus turbulent death as an excuse. He is first mentioned for crushing the revolt of the town of Fregellae in 125 BC. He was elected consul in 121 BC with Quintus Fabius Maximus Allobrogicus, and while Fabius was campaigning in Gaul, he took part in perhaps the most decisive event of Roman history to that point. When Gaius Gracchus and M. Fulvius Flaccus were defeated for re-election by Opimius and Fabius, Gracchus organized a mass protest on the Aventine Hill. Alarmed by this action, the Senate passed the motion senatus consultum ultimum, which Opimius understood as an order to suppress their activities by any means necessary -- including force. He gathered an armed force of Senators and their supporters, and confronted Gracchus and his followers, an act which quickly became a pitched battle inside the city of Rome.
