Sacerdos, C. Licinius
1. A Roman eques. When he appeared with his horse before the censors in B. C. 142, Scipio Africanus the younger, who was one of the censors, said that he knew that Sacerdos had committed perjury, but as no one came forward to accuse him, Scipio allowed him to pass on, as he would not act as accuser, witness, and judge. (Cic. Clu. 48; V. Max. 4.1.10.)
