      <hi rend="smallcaps">SEMPRONIUS</hi>
      <hi rend="smallcaps">TI. F.</hi> C. N. <hi rend="smallcaps">LONGUS</hi>, son of the preceding,
      seems to have been elected decemvir sacris faciundis in place of his father in <date when-custom="-210">B. C. 210</date>, and likewise augur in the same year, in place of T. Otacilius
      Crassus. Livy (<bibl n="Liv. 27.6">27.6</bibl>) speaks of the augur and decemvir as <hi rend="ital">Ti. Sempronius Ti f. Lonyus;</hi> and though it is rather strange that he should
      have obtained the augurate before he had held any of the higher magistracies, yet we must
      suppose him to be the same as the subject of the following notice, since Livy gives his name
      with so much accuracy, and we know of no one else of the same name at this time. He was
      tribune of the plebs <date when-custom="-210">B. C. 210</date>, curule aedile <date when-custom="-197">B.
       C. 197</date>, and in the same year one of the triumviri for establishing colonies at
      Puteoli, Buxentum, and various other places in Italy; praetor <date when-custom="-196">B. C.
       196</date>, with Sardinia as his province, which was continued to him another year; and
      consul <date when-custom="-194">B. C. 194</date> with P. Cornelius Scipio Africanus. In his
      consulship he assisted as triumvir in founding the colonies which had been determined upon in
       <date when-custom="-197">B. C. 197</date>, and he fought against the Boii with doubtful success. In
      the year after his consulship, <date when-custom="-193">B. C. 193</date>, he served as legate to the
      consul L. Cornelius Merula, in his campaign against the Boii, and in <date when-custom="-191">B. C.
       191</date> he served as legate to the consul M'. Acilius Glabrio, in his campaign against
      Antiochus in Greece. In <date when-custom="-184">B. C. 184</date> he was an unsuccessful candidate
      for the censorship. (<bibl n="Liv. 31.20">Liv. 31.20</bibl>, <bibl n="Liv. 32.27">32.27</bibl>, <bibl n="Liv. 32.29">29</bibl>, <bibl n="Liv. 33.24">33.24</bibl>, <bibl n="Liv. 33.26">26</bibl>, <bibl n="Liv. 33.43">43</bibl>, <bibl n="Liv. 34.42">34.42</bibl>,
