Gaius Ateius Capito (tribune)
:''For others with a similar name, see Ateia (gens).''
Gaius Ateius Capito was a tribune of the plebs in 55 BC. He is known primarily for his opposition to the war against the Parthians launched by Marcus Licinius Crassus.〔T.R.S. Broughton, ''The Magistrates of the Roman Republic'', vol. 2 (New York 1952), pp. 216 and 533.〕
==Opposition to triumvirate==
Ateius Capito worked with his fellow tribune Publius Aquillius Gallus in opposition to Crassus and Pompeius Magnus during their second joint consulship in 55 BC.〔Pompeius and Crassus held their first consulship in 70 BC.〕 In particular, the two tribunes supported Cato in attempting to block the ''Lex Trebonia'', legislation brought by C. Trebonius to give Crassus and Pompeius each an extended five-year proconsular province.〔Plutarch, ''Cato Minor'' 43; Cassius Dio 39.32.3 and 39.35–38.〕 Their objections at the assembly, though strenuous, were unsuccessful: Trebonius had Cato arrested, and physical force was used to eject Ateius and Aquillius when they tried to assert their veto power. Ateius at an unspecified time returned to the assembly to show his wounds and gain sympathy, but was greeted by the consuls' bodyguards.〔Robin Seager, ''Pompey the Great: A Political Biography'' (Blackwell Publishing, 2002, originally published 1979), 2nd edition, p. 124 ( online ); Elaine Fantham, ''The Roman World of Cicero's De Oratore'' (Oxford University Press, 2006), p. 233 (online. )〕
The ''Lex Trebonia'' resulted from political arrangements among Crassus, Pompeius, and Julius Caesar — the so-called "First Triumvirate" — that had been negotiated in meetings held March 56 BC at Ravenna and the next month at Luca, both in Caesar's province of Gallia Cisalpina. Pompeius received the Spanish provinces, and Crassus the province of Syria, his eagerness for which was universally interpreted as an intention to wage war against Parthia. In separate legislation, Caesar received an extension of his proconsulship in Gaul.〔Erich S. Gruen, "Pompey, the Roman Aristocracy, and the Conference of Luca," ''Historia'' 18 (1969) 71–108, especially 107–108. The literature on the triumvirate's political deal-making in 56 BC is vast; see for instance Ronald Syme, ''The Roman Revolution'' (Oxford University Press, 1939, reissued 2002), limited preview ( online ), particularly Chapter 3, "The Domination of Pompeius"; J.P.V.D. Balsdon, "Consular Provinces under the Late Republic, II," ''Journal of Roman Studies'' 29 (1939) 167–183; Colm Luibheid, "The Luca Conference," ''Classical Philology'' 65 (1970) 88–94; and Anthony J. Marshall, review of ''Crassus: A Political Biography'' by B.A. Marshall (Amsterdam 1976) and ''Marcus Crassus and the Late Roman Republic'' by A.M. Ward (University of Missouri Press, 1977), ''Phoenix'' 32 (1978) 261–266.〕 Ateius's support of Cato indicates his optimate sympathies.
