Considius

3. L. Considius, conducted, in conjunction with Sex. Saltius, a colony to Capua, which was formed by M. Brutus, the father of the so-called tyrannicide, in his tribunate, B. C. 83. [BRUTUS, No. 20] Cousidius and Saltius are ridiculed by Cicero for the arrogance which they displayed, and for calling themselves practors instead of duumvirs. (Cic. de Leg. Agr. 2.34.)
