Remarks: For the person see Zoumbaki, Elis und Olympia, M 18 and for his family I 14. The
use of both praenomina Caius und Publius by this family of Memmii sugests, that
they obtained Roman citizenship from the governor of Achaia, Macedonia and
Moesia, P. Memmius Regulus, who was accompanied in the East by his son C.
Memmius Regulus (see EL 277 and ARG 191 and 192).

241); for the stemma of the family see Appendix, Stemma XVIII.
