Information About

Trebatius Testa




He was a protege of Cicero ; Cicero dedicated his ''Topica'' to Trebatius, and recommended Trebatius as a legal advisor to Julius Caesar . Trebatius enjoyed Caesar's favor, and later that of Augustus as well.

Trebatius' writings included a ''de religionibus'' and ''de iure civili'', but not even excerpts of these survive. He was, however, frequently cited by later jurists, and also had a high reputation as the teacher of Marcus Antistius Labeo .
