	Marcus Tullius Cicero, generally regarded as one of the greatest orators of ancient Rome, was born at Arpinum (modern [http://www.arpinoturismo.it/ Arpino]) in 106 BCE. He quickly rose to prominence as an advocate and politician. The high point of his political career was in 63 BCE when as Consul he is credited with suppressing the Catilinarian Conspiracy, although some modern sources question whether there actually was any plot. Between periods of political activity, Cicero also wrote a number of works on the Latin language, religion, and philosophy. After a series of speeches in opposition to [[Marcus Antonius]], (the "Philippics") he was proscribed and killed in 43 BCE.
