- Aquileia is connected by road to Bononia.
- The consul Lucius Postumius Albinus creates a scandal by demanding free lodging and other perks while on a visit to Praeneste (normally these costs were paid by the senate).
- The Roman Senate is very generous to the ambassador Apollonius who had come from Antiochus IV, giving the envoy a large gift of money, a house to stay in, and an unlimited expense account.
