Explanation:

1- In Ancient Rome, the social order of the patricians was composed of the descendants of the thirty primitive curiae. The name comes from pater (father), in reference to the founders, that is, to the first parents of Rome. The patrician branches of Valerios, Fabios, Cornelios, Claudios, Emilios and Manlios formed an aristocracy within the patriciate known as maiores.

2- A praetor was a Roman magistrate whose hierarchy lined up immediately below that of the consul. Its main function was to administer justice in the in iure phase, grant injunctions, restitutiones in integrum and other judicial functions, and was also endowed with the ius edicendi. Other functions were to summon the Senate and the elections, enact laws, govern provinces and command armies.
