Lex Clodia

Lex Clodia DE COLLEGIIS restored the clubs or guilds (collegia) which had been abolished by a senatusconsult, probably of B.C. 64, and permitted the formation of new ones (Cic. Att. 3.1. 5, 4; pro Sest. 25, 55; in Pison. 4, 8; D. C. 38.13). Nearly all of them were subsequently swept away by Julius Caesar (Sueton. Jul. 42).
