Talk:Lucius Junius Pullus

C.f.C.n.
what does the abbreviation in the first line mean, please? – Fayenatic  L ondon 08:40, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
 * , this is years late but I thought in case you were still wondering, it means his father and paternal grandfather were named Gaius. G(aius) f(ilius) G(aius) n(epos), meaning "Gaius's son, Gaius's grandson" esentially. The use of C instead of G in praenomina that started with G was a tradition in ancient Rome left over from archaic spelling when the C and G sounds were closer in old Latin.★Trekker (talk) 15:40, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @★Trekker: thank you! It's pretty cryptic in an English encyclopedia; is it worth expanding, perhaps in another part of the page? – Fayenatic  L ondon 20:27, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Certainly there should be mentions of what his family relations were, almost all articles on Roman people focus of their family backround to give context to how and why they were in the positions they were in.★Trekker (talk) 20:44, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
