More information:

Cornelia was the daughter of the Roman statesman Publius Cornelius Scipio (died 193 B.C.). She was also the mother of Tiberius and Caius Gracchi, both statesmen who fought for more rights for the people. Tradition said that when a noble lady once visited her and bragged about her jewels and asked to see Cornelia's, Cornelia pointed to her sons and said they were her jewels.
