Camillus in Wikipedia
Marcus Furius Camillus (ca. 446 – 365 BC) was a Roman soldier and statesman of patrician descent. According to Livy and
Plutarch, Camillus triumphed four times, was five times dictator, and was honoured with the title of Second Founder of Rome.
Camillus belonged to the lineage of the Furii, whose origin had been in the Latin city of Tusculum. Although this city had

Rome, unlike most Latin cities. Soon, the Furii integrated into the Roman society, accumulating a long series of magistrate

The father of Camillus was Lucius Furius Medullinus, a patrician tribune of consular powers. Camillus had more than three
brothers: the eldest one was Lucius junior, who was both Roman Consul and tribune of consular powers. A younger brother was
Spurius. The cognomen of Camillus was the denomination of the Roman acolytes of religious rituals. Coincidently, during
