[QUOTE="curtislclay, post: 4609203, member: 89514"]Finn, Yes, emperors could assume honorary magistracies in Greek or Latin cities. Life of Hadrian: Hadrian assumed various honorary magistracies in Greek cities, and in Latin towns he functioned as dictator, aedile, or duumvir, and was quinquennalis in his home town (Italica, Spain). Presumably emperors who accepted such honorary offices would appoint deputies to govern for them; we know from Appian that that was the case when Mark Antony assumed a high office at Tarsus.[/QUOTE]
