6. C.SemproniusTuditanus, C. F., was one of the ten commissioners sent to L. Mummius in B. C. 146 in order to form Southern Greece into a Roman province. He has been confounded by Drumann (Gesckichte Roms, vol. iii. p. 81) with the following [No. 7], as he had been by Cicero, whose mistake was corrected by Atticus. This Tuditanus was the proavus or great grandfather of the orator Hortensius. (Cic. Att. 13.6.4, 13.33.3.)
