a debtor of L. Tullius Montanus, who had become surety for him to L. Munatius Plancus. The brother-in-law of Montanus had written to Cicero to beg Plancus to grant indulgence or delay (ad Att. 12.52), and Cicero frequently requests Atticus (12.52; 14.16, 17; 15.2) to bring Flamma to a settlement. Writing to his freedman Tiro, Cicero hints at stronger measures, and desires him to get part of the debt by the first day of January, B. C. 44. Flamma may have been a freedman of the Flaminia gens.
