Excerpt from Roman Constitutional History: 753-44 B. C
The Clan. - The Latin clan (gens) comprised the free male descendants on the male side from a common ancestor, the free female descendants through the male line who remained unmarried, and all the women who were married to members of the clan (gentiles). In a certain sense de pendent and protected persons (clientes) also belon ged to the clan. The members of a clan had a common name, a com mon worship, and. Mutual rights and duties. They were under obligation to assist and protect one another, and they exercised a certain jurisdiction, particularly in the case of minors and insane persons. Perhaps no one wielded in the clan such an extensive authority as the father did in the family. The powers of the father and the clan were probably greater in the prehistoric times, since the state and the claims of individual liberty tended to diminish them.
The members of a clan seem to have occupied lands in common, and to have built one or more villages. Each family received a portion of the lands, and the clan retained a common tract, which down to a somewhat late period was managed as a joint possession.

Excerpt from Roman Constitutional History: 753-44 B. C
The object of this book is to provide collateral reading for students of Latin, to supplement the ordinary school histories of Rome, and, especially, to furnish an introduction to a thorough study of the political institutions of the Roman republic.
The denarius has been valued at twenty-two cents, and the sestertius at five and a half cents. In statements concerning the census and the number of citizens, the year when the censors were elected has been given. Whenever the letters a.d. have not been added, dates always refer to the time b.c. For the convenience of readers who have not studied Latin, nearly all technical terms have been translated.
Of the many eminent authorities on Roman Constitutional History and Law, I am by far the most indebted to Theodor Mommsen, Ernst Herzog, Ludwig Lange, and Pierre Willems. I wish also to acknowledge my great obligations to Professors F. W. Kelsey and J. H. Drake of Michigan University, and Professors J. S. Clark and J. B. Pike of the University of Minnesota. The General Editors of this Series have read with the greatest care both the manuscript and the proofs, and have throughout rendered invaluable assistance.
