Caio Canuleio or Gaius Canuleius

Tribune of the Roman people author of Lex Canuleia (445 a. C.) born and dead in uncertain places, which opted for the validity of marriages between patricians and commoners, the two classes that divided the city, the law of civil equality. After a plebeian revolt, a ten-member commission, the decemvirs (450 a. C.), published for the first time a code of laws valid for all. 5 years later, with Lex Canuleia, also known as the Canuleio plebiscite (445 a. C.), revoking the previous law by vote and validating the marriages between patricians and commoners, the two classes that divided the city. It was one of the first social achievements of the Romans, the law of civil equality, and it paved the way for the future creation of the famous Roman law.
But the following year, in order to prevent commoners from obtaining the right to become consuls, this magistracy was abolished by the patricians. The consulate, however, was reestablished (366 a. C.), and access to it was allowed to commoners by the Laws of Licinius and Sextium, both tribunes of the commoners. Two new magistrates or political functions were created, that of praetors and that of censors, reserved exclusively to the patricians and to which part of the powers of the former consulate.
