RMW9HM33–Marcus Tullius Cicero (106 BC – 43 BC) was a Roman statesman, lawyer and philosopher, considered to be one of Rome's greatest orators and prose stylists. When the latter half of the 1st century BC was marked by civil wars and the dictatorship of Julius Caesar, Cicero championed a return to the traditional republican government. Following Caesar's death, Cicero became an enemy of Mark Antony attacking him in a series of speeches. He was proscribed as an enemy of the state by the Second Triumvirate and consequently executed by soldiers during an attempted flight from the Italian peninsula.

RMW6RND8–The Catilinarian conspirators before the Senate. they included Lucius Sergius Catilina (108–62 BCE), Roman Senator of the 1st century BC who devised the plot with the help of a group of aristocrats and disaffected veterans, to overthrow the Roman Republic in 63 BC. Cicero exposed the plot, which forced Catiline to flee from Rome. The five conspirators were condemned to death but fearing that other conspirators might try to free them, Cicero had them strangled in the Tullianum immediately and an end was made to the conspiracy in Rome.
