c.
a.In the year 56, he was appointed praefectus urbi by Nero. Few details of his tenure are known; only that he was murdered in the year 61, stabbed by one of his slaves. The senate, led by Gaius Cassius Longinus,[i] demanded the execution of all of Pedanius' four hundred slaves, in accordance with Roman law. ........
b.Regardless of the slave's origin, he was nearly always a marginal person in the society in which he was enslaved. In Africa slaves were despised, and their low status, which was passed on to freedmen, persists to the present time. In most societies most slaves were at the very bottom of society.
